3M 7100169492 Electrical Tape 3/4in 60ft Red

Product Description

The 3M 7100169492 is a general-use vinyl electrical tape from the 3M Temflex 165 series, designed for insulation of wire splices, terminals, and connections in low-voltage electrical work. The tape measures 3/4 inches wide and 60 feet long with a 6 mil thickness, providing consistent coverage across standard wiring tasks. A rubber-based adhesive ensures reliable conformability and adhesion to irregular surfaces. With a dielectric strength of 1,000 volts per mil, it meets the insulation demands of typical residential and light commercial wiring applications. Electricians and maintenance technicians reach for this tape during routine service, repair, and new installation work.

This tape is suited for insulation applications in residential, commercial, and light industrial electrical systems. The Temflex 165 series is commonly used for color-coding conductors, bundling wire runs, and providing protective wrap on splices and terminals. The red color allows for quick phase or circuit identification in panel and junction box work. The operating temperature range of 32 degrees F to 194 degrees F covers most indoor and moderate-environment service conditions. It is a single-roll package intended for general electrical trade use.

Key Features

• 6 mil thickness provides durable insulation coverage for general wiring tasks
• Dielectric strength of 1,000 V/mil supports standard low-voltage insulation requirements
• Rubber adhesive conforms to irregular surfaces and maintains bond across temperature cycles
• Red color supports conductor color-coding and circuit identification
• Operating temperature range of 32 degrees F to 194 degrees F (0 degrees C to 90 degrees C)
• 60-foot roll length suitable for extended runs or multiple splice jobs per roll

Compatibility

Designed for general-use electrical insulation applications as part of the 3M Temflex 165 series; suitable for standard residential and commercial wiring insulation and color-coding tasks.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians or qualified maintenance personnel. De-energize all circuits before applying or removing tape from live conductors, following applicable NEC guidelines. Clean and dry the surface before taping to ensure full adhesive contact. Do not use as a substitute for listed wire connectors or primary insulation on conductors requiring higher-rated protection.
