Scotch
™
2242
Linerless Electrical Rubber Tape
Product Description
Scotch™ 2242 Electrical Tape is an
economical, general purpose, rubber
tape. The tape is a highly
conformable, linerless EPR (Ethylene
Propylene Rubber) based electrical
insulating tape. The tape is designed
for use in splicing and terminating
wires and cables rated up to 90°C.
The tape will meet industry
specifications for flame retardance
and has the necessary physical and
electrical properties to provide
immediate moisture seals and
void–free buildup.

Specifications
Product
The high–voltage corona resistant
tape must be supplied without a liner
and based on ethylene propylene
rubber and be capable of emergency
operating cable temperature of 130°C.
The tape must be capable of being
applied in either stretched or
unstretched conditions without
resulting in loss in either physical or
electrical properties. The tape must
not split, crack, slip or flag when
exposed to various environments
(indoors or outdoor). The tape must
be compatible with all synthetic cable
insulations and have a shelf life of
five years. The tape must be flame
retardant.
Engineering/Architectural
Splicing and terminating solid
dielectric cables shall be done in
accordance with drawings engineered
by the splice material manufacturer
such as the 2047 Series available from
the 3M company.
Installation Techniques
Scotch™ 2242 Electrical Tape should
be applied in successive half–lapped
level wound layers until desired
buildup is reached.
This tape should be applied like any
rubber tape: that is, the side of the
tape wrapped inside the roll should be
applied ouside on the splice. (Tacky
side up.) This will help prevent the
roll from getting progressively further
away from the work area.
To eliminate voids in critical areas,
highly elongate 2242 Tape. Stretch
tape in these critical areas just short of
the breaking point; doing so will not
alter its physical or electrical
properties. In less critical areas, less
elongation may be used. Normally
2242 Tape is stretched 3/4 of its
original width in these critical areas.
Always attempt to half–lap to produce
a uniform buildup.
Shelf Life
Scotch™ 2242 Electrical Tape has a
5–year shelf life (from date of
manufacture) when stored under the
following recommended storage
conditions. Store behind present
stock in a clean dry place at a
temperature of 70°F and 40 to 50%
relative humidity. Good stock
rotation is also recommended.
Availability
Scotch™ 2242 Electrical Tape is
available in 3/4 in. by 15 ft, and 1–1/2
in. by 15 ft rolls from your electrical
distributor.
