Intertape 85827 Green Vinyl Electrical Tape 7 Mil

Product Description

The INTERTAPE 85827 is a green vinyl electrical insulating tape built for general-purpose electrical maintenance and repair. It consists of a soft, plasticized, stabilized PVC film coated with a non-corrosive rubber-based adhesive. At 7 mil thick, it delivers solid dielectric strength of 600 volts per mil, making it suitable for insulating splices, protecting wire-nut connections, and wrapping conductors. The roll measures 60 feet in length and 19.05 millimeters (0.75 inches) in width. Weighing 0.18 pounds, it is a compact, single-roll format suited for service vans and job-site tool bags. Electricians and maintenance technicians reach for this tape when a quick, reliable insulation solution is needed.

This tape is designed for residential and light commercial electrical work. Common applications include repairing frayed wiring, splicing electrical wiring, protecting wire-nut connections, resurfacing and insulating hand tools, and general-purpose maintenance and repair tasks. The green color makes it useful for phase identification, grounding conductor marking, or color-coded wire management in panel and conduit work. It performs across a temperature range of up to 80 degrees C (176 degrees F), covering the thermal demands of most standard wiring environments.

Key Features

• 7 mil thick PVC vinyl film for durable insulation and conformability
• Dielectric strength of 600 volts per mil for reliable electrical insulation
• Non-corrosive rubber resin adhesive resists adhesive-related conductor damage
• Green color supports phase identification and color-coded wiring practices
• 60-foot roll length reduces mid-job roll changes on larger runs
• Rated for use up to 80 degrees C maximum operating temperature

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose vinyl electrical insulating tape compatible with standard electrical wiring, splicing, and insulation applications in residential and light commercial settings.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians or qualified maintenance technicians. Always de-energize the circuit and verify voltage absence with a meter before applying tape to any conductor or connection. Tape should be applied with consistent tension and overlap to ensure full coverage and adhesion. Follow applicable NEC requirements for insulation type and method when using tape as part of a splice or repair.
