Scotch® Tape 23 is a 30 mil, premium grade, highly conformable, rubber splicing tape. The self fusing tape has a special polyester liner, which will not stick to the tape upon unwind. It withstands temperatures up to 194 °F (90 °C).

Use Scotch® Rubber Splicing Tape 23 for low or high voltage applications and joints up to 69 kV. This thick, highly conformable, self-amalgamating EPR (Ethylene Propylene Rubber) based tape can be stretched up to 100% for void-free, moisture-resistant insulation. It’s non-vulcanising and shelf-stable with excellent electrical properties. Featuring a special polyester liner that will not stick when unwinding, this tape is ideal for moisture sealing electrical connections.
