TURBO® Tape is a self-fusing silicone rubber tape which bonds readily to itself to form a watertight, electrically insulating, protective wrap.
TURBO® Tape is available in triangular or rectangular cross-sections in a wide range of sizes and colors. Triangular tapes feature a raised, integral guideline or a contrasting color guideline for ease of application.
TURBO® Tape Applications
TURBO® Tape is recommended for use wherever moisture and/or other contaminants must be excluded from an electrical connection, coil or other device.
TURBO® Tape retains its flexibility and protective properties over a wide temperature range of -65°C through +260°C.
