Glass Cloth Electrical Tape 89 is a 7-mil woven insulating glass cloth tape with
pressure-sensitive rubber thermosetting white glass cloth tape. This tape is designed to
operate in 600-volt dry applications requiring high mechanical strength and resistance to
high temperatures. The adhesive is a pressure-sensitive rubber thermosetting system.
The glass cloth is specially treated and prepared to provide corrosion-free protection.
The glass cloth will not shrink, rot or burn, has a high tensile strength and is printable.

Specifications
3M
™
Glass Cloth Electrical Tape 89 is a glass cloth electrical tape with a rubber
thermosetting adhesive. The tape shall be white and 7 mils (0,177 mm) thick. The tape
shall be coated on one side with pressure-sensitive adhesive, which shall not require
heat, moisture or other preparation prior to or subsequent to application. The adhesive
coating shall be smooth and uniform and be free of lumps and bare spots. There shall
be no separator between adjacent layers of the roll. The tape shall perform at a
temperature of 266° F (130° C) without loss of physical or electrical properties.
Engineering/
Architecture
For maximum solvent resistance and holding properties, the tape should be thermoset
at one of the following cycles;
1 hour @ 300° F(150° C)
2 hours @ 275° F(135° C)
3 hours @ 120° F(250° C)
Shelf Life &
Storage
This product has a 5-year shelf life from date of manufacture when stored in a humidity
controlled storage (50°F/10°C to 80°F/27°C and <75% relative humidity).
