Review on 1-Roll of 3/4-in by 66-ft Scotch Electrical Tape in Black for Improved SEO by Carla Anderson

In my work, I use equipment and tools from different companies, but as for insulating materials, here I give preference to the 3M brand and its Scotch series. This is a rather expensive "duct tape" (its price is 10 times higher than its competitors), but in terms of plasticity, stickiness and ease of installation in winter, it is above all praise. Insulating vinyl tape of the highest class "3M - Scotch 22". Cost - 1500 rubles, for one wide roll. Made in USA. This "duct tape" is designed for industrial cable installation - it is wider and denser than the standard format. Roll dimensions - about 11x4 cm, length - almost 33 meters. Provides insulation of current-carrying parts up to 600 Volts, withstands operational heating up to 80 degrees. This "duct tape" is very dense and quite economical - it provides good protection with minimal winding with half overlap (although I'm not "greedy", I wind it in several layers - one roll is enough for me for two large engines). The huge advantage of "Scotch 22" is that it remains flexible and sticks well at air temperatures below -20 degrees (although the manufacturer guarantees ease of installation only up to -10). Its rubber adhesive layer with a "dead" grip clings even to dirty surfaces, protecting it from the effects of the atmosphere (suitable for work in wet areas). Other pluses include: 1. resistance to various mechanical friction - showed itself well with slight vibrations of the equipment 2. high tensile strength and low elongation 3. It is resistant to alkalis, acids, corrosion and UV (does not break down in the sun). At the moment, I have not found insulating materials better than the 3M company offers: double-sided tape - for the car, "Scotch 33" - for the home, and "Scotch 22" - for industry.
