The Cellpack insulating tape Nr.128 0.15-19-10 rt is a high-quality, elastic PVC insulating tape in red colour, specifically designed for use in the electrical and telecommunications sectors. It is used for electrical insulation of wires, cables and connections to ensure short-circuit protection and shock protection. The tape features UV resistance, making it suitable for outdoor use or locations exposed to direct sunlight. The elastic structure allows for secure and tight coverage, even on complex or irregular surfaces.
Applications
This insulating tape is used in professional electrical and telecommunications work, particularly for insulating cables, wires, connection terminals and other electrical components. It is suitable for indoor and outdoor installations where durable insulation under UV radiation exposure is required. Typical applications include machine wiring, building technology or the installation of communication lines.
Functions and Features in Detail
The tape is made of PVC material, known for its electrical insulation properties and mechanical durability. The red colour serves as a visual identifier, for example to differentiate wires according to colour coding or to mark high-voltage lines. The elastic texture ensures a firm grip on the cable, preventing the tape from slipping even under mechanical stress or movement. UV resistance protects the material from ageing and discolouration due to sunlight, extending the tape’s service life.
Technology Explained Simply
The tape dimensions are 0.15 mm thickness, 19 mm width and a length of 10 metres per roll. The thin 0.15 mm thickness allows for precise and narrow coverage without impairing cable flexibility. The 19 mm width provides sufficient coverage for standard cables and wires. The 10-metre length per roll offers sufficient supply for multiple installations. The material is electrically non-conductive due to its PVC composition, providing reliable protection against electrical discharges.
Compatibility and Accessories
The insulating tape is universally applicable and compatible with all common cable types and wire cross-sections within the tape’s dimensions. It can be applied using standard insulating tape dispensers or by hand. No special accessories are required, as the tape ensures secure insulation on its own. The red colour enables easy visual differentiation from other wires, which is helpful during maintenance and servicing.
Installation and Mounting
Installation is performed by winding the tape around the cable or component to be insulated. It is recommended to wind the tape under slight tension and in multiple layers to ensure dense and gap-free coverage. The elastic nature of the material ensures that the tape maintains its position even under temperature fluctuations or mechanical stress. UV resistance allows use in outdoor applications without the material quickly cracking or fading.
Operational Advantages
The insulating tape provides reliable electrical insulation that remains stable even under long-term UV radiation exposure. The elastic structure ensures secure fastening that is unlikely to slip. The red colour simplifies identification and marking of wires, enhancing workplace safety. The combination of low thickness, adequate width and long roll length makes the tape a practical tool for daily use in electrical and telecommunications work.
