General characteristics common to all three specifications

-65°F to +500°F / -54°C to +260°C Continuous Exposure: Higher Intermittent

FlameShield™ rectangular (Type I) and triangular (Type II) profile silicone rubber self-fusing self-amalgamating compression tapes meeting various OEM manufacturer's and A-A-59163, Mil-I-46852 or Mil-I-22444 specification are used for a variety of critical electrical wiring and cable splicing and protection jobs. Especially suited for aviation and marine environments, as well as outdoor weathering environments.

These tapes have no adhesive, but sticks to itself (self-fuses or self amalgamating) when stretched and wrapped onto itself. The tapes starts fully bonding immediately, and after several minutes cannot be unwound or removed without using a sharp knife or blade. This tape makes a waterproof, weatherproof and air tight protection.

This tape is available in oxide-red and black colors - other colors are available as a custom run. The triangular tape has a guideline stripe in the center which aids in achieving a 50% spiral wrap. Triangular levelwrap tapes provide a smooth surface on spiral wrapping, preventing the tape wrap area from snagging when pulling a wire or cable through a bundle or over objects or openings.

FlameShield™ tapes meeting A-A-59163, Mil-I-46852 and Mil-I-22444 provide superior electrical insulation with a minimum of 300 volts per mil (.001") of tape thickness at 365°F / 180°C. A 20mil tape therefore provides 6000 volts per wrap of insulation value. This tape is also used to wrap hydraulic connections and to make vibration resistant bumpers and spacers for wiring, cable, hose, pipes and lines. This tape is used to wrap and hold insulation in place on hot air ducts.

For MIL-I-22444 tapes the embedded sinusoidal fiberglass layer provides limited stretch of the tape during installation, ensuring that a consistent minimum thickness is achieved during installation opposed to a variable thickness that occurs when manually adding tension to the tape during human applied scenarios. Machine applied tape tends to be much more uniform in thickness due to the automated tensioning measurement feedback in the application machinery.

Supported/reinforced tape also prevents tape creep and fracturing when the tape is clamped with excessive force with either a connector backshell, or installation clamp on a hydraulic fitting. The tape tends to remains in place and without layer fracturing compared to non supported/reinforced versions of the tape (MIL-I-46852 and A-A-59163 versions).

The tape has a built-in fiberglass sinusoidal reinforcement limiting the amount of elongation (either a maximum of 15% or 25%).

Tapes meeting Mil-I-22444C provide superior electrical insulation with a minimum of 350 volts per mil (.001") of tape thickness at 365°F / 180°C. A 20mil tape therefore provides 7000 volts per wrap of insulation value.

This tape is also used to wrap hydraulic connections and to make vibration resistant bumpers and spacers for wiring, cable, hose, pipes and lines. This tape is used to wrap and hold insulation in place on hot air ducts. Makes an in-situ bushing for protecting wiring at the backshell clamp.
