These adhesive have higher tack (again “stickyness when dry” for the layman) than acrylic adhesives as well as higher shear strength but they have limited UV resistance. These are used in the cheapest tapes on the market, but have limited applications. Natural rubber adhesives are used in duct tapes, low-temperature masking tapes and surface protection tapes (think of the tape you get on your new fridge or stove).

2. Durability Red insulation tape is designed to withstand high temperatures and resist various environmental factors. This durability ensures that it can maintain its insulating properties over time, even in challenging conditions.

4. Electrical Insulation The primary function of red insulation tape is to provide electrical insulation. It can effectively cover exposed wires, preventing accidental contact and short circuits.

2. Waterproof and Weather Resistant Butyl rubber tape is inherently waterproof, creating a robust barrier against moisture. This makes it ideal for use in roofing, gutters, and around windows and doors, where water ingress is a common concern. The tape can withstand extreme temperatures, UV rays, and other weather conditions, ensuring long-lasting protection.

Pump control boxes are responsible for monitoring the flow of water and controlling a water pump to keep it at the desired level. Pump control can vary depending on the type of control box that is installed.

Repairing vacuum hoses or joints

Self fusing tape is a type of self-adhesive tape that can be used for emergency or temporary repairs to electrical wires, plumbing and hoses.
