Heavy Duty Vinyl Electrical Tape 22 is a premium grade, 10-mil thick, vinyl
insulating tape. It is designed to perform continuously in ambient temperatures up to
80°C (176°F). The tape is conformable for cold weather applications down to
-10°C (15°F). It has excellent resistance to abrasion, moisture, alkalies, acids,
corrosion and varying weather conditions. The combination of elastic backing and
aggressive adhesive provides moisture-tight electrical and mechanical protection with
minimum bulk. Scotch
®
Tape 22 is an Underwriters’ Laboratories Listed and
Canadian Standards Association Certified “Insulating Tape.”

Specifications
Scotch
®
Heavy Duty Vinyl Electrical Tape 22 is based on polyvinyl chloride (PVC)
and/or its copolymers, and has a rubber-based, pressure-sensitive adhesive. The
tape shall be 10 mils thick, and be UL Listed and marked per UL Standard 510 as
“Flame-Retardant and Cold-Resistant.” The tape must be applied at temperatures
ranging from 15°F through 100°F (-10°C through 38°C), without loss of physical
properties. It shall be classified for use in both indoor and outdoor environments. The
tape shall be compatible with synthetic cable insulations, jackets and splicing
compounds. Scotch
®
Tape 22 will remain stable and will not telescope more than 0.1
inches when maintained at temperatures below 120°F (50°C).

Specifications
Primary electrical insulation (branch wiring in wet or dry locations): All splices for
600-volt wire rated 80°C (176°F) and below shall be insulated with a minimum of two
half-lapped layers of Scotch
®
Heavy Duty Vinyl Electrical Tape 22. All connectors
having irregular surfaces shall be padded with 3M™ Scotchfil™ Electrical Insulation
Putty or Scotch
®
Linerless Rubber Splicing Tape 130C prior to insulating with this
tape.
Mechanical Protection (outer jacketing)
All rubber and thermoplastic insulating high voltage power cable tape splices and
repairs shall be over wrapped with at least two half-lapped layers of Scotch
®
Tape 22.
Installation
Scotch
®
Tape 22 shall be applied in half-lapped layers with sufficient tension to
produce a uniform wind (for most applications this tension will reduce the tape’s width
to approximately 5/8 of its original width). On pigtail splices, the tape shall be
wrapped beyond the end of the wires and then folded back, leaving a protective
cushion to resist cut-through. Wrap tape up-hill, taping from a smaller diameter
surface to a larger diameter surface. Apply the tape with no tension on the last wrap
to prevent flagging.
