CHR4440 Silicone Rubber Self Fusing Electrical Tape
Temperature Range: -54°C to +260°C / -65°F to +500°F
FlameShieldä CHR4440 equivalent triangular (Type II) profile silicone rubber self-fusing self-amalgamating compression tapes meeting MIL & commercial specifications 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.
The 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.
This tape is oxide-red. The triangular tape has a guideline stripe in the center which aids in achieving a 50% spiral wrap. Triangular tapes provide a smooth surface on spiral wrapping, preventing the tape wrap area from snagging when pulling a wire or cable through a bundle or over objects or openings. Triangular profile tapes are sometimes referred to as a centerline tape due to the guideline running down the center of the tape.
This tape meets 14 CFR 25.853(a) at amendment 25-116; Appendix F, Part I(a)(1)(i) (60 Second Vertical Flammability Test).
