3M 1700-3/4X60FT Temflex Electrical Tape 7 Mil 3/4 in X 60 Ft

Product Description

The 3M 1700-3/4X60FT is a general-purpose black vinyl electrical tape designed for insulating, harnessing, and jacketing applications in both residential and commercial electrical work. Each roll measures 3/4 inch wide by 60 feet long at 7 mil thickness. The tape combines an aggressive rubber resin adhesive with an elastic PVC backing to deliver reliable electrical and mechanical protection. It is flame retardant and highly resistant to UV rays, moisture, alkalis, acids, and copper corrosion. Rated from 32 degrees F to 176 degrees F, it holds up across a wide range of environmental conditions. Electricians and MRO professionals reach for this roll as a standard workhorse tape for wire bundling, splicing, and insulation repair.

This tape suits indoor and outdoor applications where durable electrical insulation is required. It is commonly used for low- and high-voltage cable splices and repairs, wire harness bundling, and protective jacketing on conductor runs. The elastic PVC backing conforms well to irregular surfaces and layered wrap applications. Its resistance to varying weather conditions makes it appropriate for outdoor conduit work, service entrance repairs, and installations exposed to sunlight or moisture. Electricians on commercial, industrial, and residential service calls keep this roll on hand for quick insulation repairs and bundling tasks.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose electrical insulating tape suitable for standard residential, commercial, and industrial wire and cable applications requiring vinyl tape insulation, harnessing, or jacketing.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with NEC requirements. De-energize and lock out all circuits before applying tape to conductors, splices, or connections. Ensure the surface is clean and dry before wrapping to promote proper adhesion. Do not use as the sole insulation on conductors rated beyond the tape's listed temperature or voltage range without consulting applicable code and manufacturer documentation.
