Electrical tape for colour coding

This 3M Scotch 35 series tape is an orange polyvinyl chloride film with a rubber adhesive. It is supplied as a continuous single-sided roll measuring one-half inch wide by twenty feet long. The product is intended for phase identification, motor lead marking and piping system colour coding in electrical work.

Temperature and voltage limits

The tape carries a voltage rating of six hundred volts and operates between fourteen degrees Fahrenheit and two hundred twenty-one degrees Fahrenheit. Performance outside this temperature range is not supported by the specification. The material is rated for general-purpose electrical insulation within these boundaries.

Capacity for typical wiring tasks

One roll provides twenty feet of coverage, suitable for multiple lead-marking jobs or a single larger harness. The seven-mil thickness gives adequate mechanical protection for standard low-voltage circuits. Very long conduit runs or high-volume production environments will require additional rolls.

Questions about this item

How do I decide between the 1/2 inch by 20 feet roll and other widths or lengths?

The 1/2 inch width suits standard wire bundling and colour coding tasks; choose a wider roll only if you need to cover larger cable bundles or pipe sections in a single wrap.

What does the 600 V rating mean when the tape is applied to live conductors?

It certifies the tape for insulating splices and joints up to 600 volts, provided the wrap is applied with proper tension and overlap according to electrical code.

How does the PVC film and rubber adhesive perform across the stated temperature range?

The tape remains flexible and adhesive from 14 °F up to 221 °F, so it will not become brittle in cold environments or lose grip in hot motor leads and piping systems.
