3M 7000132902 Electrical Tape 7 Mil 1 in X 66 Ft Black

Product Description

The 3M 7000132902 is a general-purpose vinyl electrical tape from the Series 1700 line, designed for insulating, bundling, and protecting wire and cable connections. It measures 1 inch wide by 792 inches (66 feet) in length with a 7 mil thickness and a rubber-based adhesive backing. Rated at 1,000 volts per mil dielectric strength and an operating temperature range of 32 degrees F to 176 degrees F, it is suited for low-voltage electrical insulation work in residential, commercial, and light industrial settings. Electricians and maintenance technicians reach for this tape when splicing, color-coding, or wrapping conductors during routine service.

This tape is appropriate for use in electrical panels, junction boxes, conduit wiring, and general wire management applications. Its black color makes it a standard choice for phase identification or general-purpose insulation wraps. The rubber adhesive provides consistent conformability around irregular conductor shapes. It is packaged as a single roll and is well-suited to everyday use in the field or shop environment.

Key Features

• 7 mil thick rubber-adhesive construction for reliable insulation and conformability
• Dielectric strength of 1,000 volts per mil for low-voltage applications
• Operating temperature range: 32 degrees F to 176 degrees F (0 degrees C to 80 degrees C)
• Tensile strength of 17 pounds per inch for tear resistance during wrapping
• Meets ASTM D-2301 Type 1, UL 510, and CSA certification requirements
• Single roll, 1 inch wide by 66 feet long — standard field-carry size

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose electrical insulation tape suitable for bundling, insulating, and protecting conductors and connections in standard low-voltage electrical applications conforming to UL 510 requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with applicable NEC guidelines. De-energize and lock out the circuit before applying tape to any conductor or termination. Apply with consistent tension and overlap each wrap by at least half the tape width to ensure full insulation coverage. Do not use this tape as a substitute for rated wire nuts or terminal connectors in high-voltage or high-temperature environments beyond the rated 176 degrees F limit.
