Professional 6 mil brown vinyl electrical tape for cable insulation, repair, and protection up to 600V with flame-retardant properties and wide temperature range
3M™ Temflex™ Vinyl Electrical Tape 165 is a professional-grade 6 mil (0.152 mm) thick vinyl insulating tape engineered for versatile applications in electrical work. This brown-colored tape is specifically designed for cable jacket repair, harnessing and bundling cables, phase identification, wire fishing, and mechanical protection on splices rated up to 600V. Made from resilient polyvinyl chloride (PVC), the tape delivers exceptional durability and reliability for light to moderate indoor and outdoor weather-protected conditions.
The tape operates within a wide temperature range of 19°F (-7°C) to 194°F (90°C) per CSA-C22.2 No. 197 standards, making it suitable for diverse climatic conditions. It features flame-retardant properties and cold-weather resistance, providing mechanical protection without adding unnecessary bulk. The solventless adhesive manufacturing process ensures no volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are used, underscoring 3M's commitment to safety and environmental responsibility. With insulation resistance exceeding 10^12 ohms and UV resistance, this tape maintains its performance integrity over extended periods.
Each case contains 100 rolls, making it ideal for bulk industrial and occupational use. The tape is UL 510 Listed and CSA Certified as an insulating tape, ensuring compliance with industry standards. With a 5-year shelf life, this product is available exclusively for industrial and occupational use. The tape can help reduce moisture ingress when used as an overwrap in combination with rubber splicing or mastic tape products, providing comprehensive protection for electrical connections.
