Tyco Electronics TE Connectivity 608036 Equivalent Silicone Fusion Electrical Insulation Tape
Temperature Range: -54°C to +260°C / -65°F to +500°F
FlameShieldä TE 608036 equivalent silicone self-fusing self-amalgamating tape meets MIL and commercial specifications. The tape is used to form bushings to aid in strain relief. Popular for use in avionics and marine wiring.
TE 608036 equivalent 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. TE 608036 equivalent tape makes a waterproof, weatherproof and air tight protection.
This tape is available in almost any color, but oxide-red and black are the most common.
FlameShield™ TE 608036 equivalent tapes provide 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.
TE 608036 equivalent 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 meets 14 CFR 25.853(a) at amendment 25-116; Appendix F, Part I(a)(1)(i) (60 Second Vertical Flammability Test).
