Overview
Temflex 1500 Electrical Tape is a good quality, general purpose PVC insulating tape. It has good resistance to abrasion, moisture, alkalis, acid and varying weather conditions (including sunlight). It is a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) tape that has a high dielectric strength, is conformable and provides good mechanical protection with minimum bulk. Temflex 1500 is classified as IEC 60454-3-1-5/F-PVCP/90 and has VDE Marks Licence.
Applications
Primary electrical insulation for all wire and cable joints and repairs. Harnessing of wire and cables. For indoor and outdoor applications.

Installation Technique
The tape shall be applied in half-lapped layers with sufficient tension to conform and produce a uniform covering. In most applications, this tension will reduce the tape’s width to 5/8 of its original width. Apply the tape with no tension on the last wrap to prevent flagging.
Maintenance
Temflex 1500 Electrical Tape is stable under normal storage conditions.
