Boeing HS5215E103 / HS5215E203 Silicone Rubber Electrical Insulation Tapes
Temperature Range: -54°C to +260°C / -65°F to +500°F
FlameShieldä tape meeting Boeing HS5215E103 & HS5215E203 specification are used for a variety of critical electrical wiring and cable splicing and protection jobs. Especially suited for aviation and marine environments, as well as outdoor weathering environments.
Boeing HS5215E103 tape has no adhesive, but sticks to itself (self-fuses or self-amalgamating) when stretched and wrapped onto itself. The tapes starts curing within minutes, and after several hours cannot be unwound or removed without using a sharp knife or blade. This tape makes a waterproof, weatherproof and air tight protection. Boeing HS5215E103 tape is black.
Provides superior electrical insulation with a minimum of 300 volts per mil (.001") of tape thickness at 365°F / 180°C. A 20mil tape therefore provides 6000 volts per wrap of insulation value.
Boeing HS5215E103 tape is also used to wrap hydraulic connections and to make vibration resistant bumpers and spacers for wiring, cable, hose, pipes and lines. This tape is used to wrap and hold insulation in place on hot air ducts. Makes an in-situ bushing for protecting wiring at the backshell clamp. This tape is commonly specified for use on Apache helicopter airframes and has an NSN number assignment of 5330-01-479-4233 / 530-01-479-4235. Alternate P/N for HS5215E103 is RM011875.
This tape meets 14 CFR 25.853(a) at amendment 25-116; Appendix F, Part I(a)(1)(i) (60 Second Vertical Flammability Test).
