Best Practices for 3M Scotch Vinyl Electrical Tape 35
-
Application
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 width of the tape to approximately 5/8 of its original width. On pigtail splice, the tape should be wrapped beyond the end of the wire and then folded back, leaving a protective cushion to resist cut-through. Wrap tape uphill, taping from a smaller diameter surface to a larger diameter surface. Apply the tape with no tension on the last wrap to prevent flagging.
