3M 7000132640 Vinyl Electrical Color Coding Tape Gray

Product Description

The 3M 7000132640 is a gray polyvinyl chloride (PVC) electrical color coding tape designed for phase identification, motor lead marking, and piping system color coding. Measuring 1/2 inch wide by 20 feet long, this roll provides a compact, easy-to-handle format for field and panel work. The PVC construction delivers strong electrical insulation properties alongside abrasion resistance and weather resistance, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations. Licensed electricians and maintenance technicians rely on this tape for quick, code-consistent identification of conductors and phases without compromising insulation integrity.

This tape is used in residential, commercial, and light industrial electrical applications where color-coded identification of phases, motor leads, or piping systems is required. The gray color designation suits specific phase or neutral identification conventions depending on local code requirements. It applies cleanly to wire bundles, conduit, and piping surfaces and holds up in environments where moisture and mechanical wear are concerns.

Key Features

• Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) film backing provides electrical insulation and mechanical protection
• Abrasion-resistant and weather-resistant construction for durable field use
• Gray color for phase identification, motor lead coding, and piping system marking
• 1/2 inch width suits tight wire bundles and conductor marking applications
• 20 ft roll length in a compact format for tool pouch or service kit storage

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose PVC electrical color coding tape for use on motor leads, phase conductors, and piping systems in standard electrical installation and maintenance applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians or qualified maintenance technicians. De-energize and lock out the circuit before applying or removing identification tape on any live conductor or terminal. Ensure the surface is clean and dry before application for proper adhesion. Refer to applicable NEC requirements and local code amendments for conductor color-coding conventions before selecting tape color for phase identification.
