This specific tape is optimized for passenger compartments; for engine bays, check for Tesa products specifically rated for high-heat and chemical resistance.
No, this is a fleece-based harness tape designed for bundling and noise damping, not as a replacement for electrical insulation tape.
It is designed to hold securely over a wide temperature range, but like most adhesives, it may leave some residue if removed after years of high-heat exposure.
The tape has a thickness of 280µm.
Yes, the tape remains stable and functional in temperatures as low as -40°C.
Ensure the cable jacket is clean and free of grease or silicones; wipe with isopropyl alcohol before application.
Use a higher overlap percentage (up to 50%) when wrapping to increase the thickness of the damping layer.
Apply a sharp, quick snap motion at the edge of the tape rather than pulling slowly to ensure a clean tear.
For the best adhesion results, ensure the wiring harness is free of dust, oil, and silicone residues before application. Clean the cables with an appropriate degreaser if necessary. When wrapping, maintain a consistent tension to ensure the fleece remains compressed around the wires without stretching it to the point of deformation. Store the rolls in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the adhesive properties for future use.
