3M 2228 Self-Fusing Electrical Tape
This pack contains ten rolls of black 3M 2228 tape for insulating and splicing tasks. Each roll measures two inches wide by ten feet long with a 65 mil thickness. The ethylene propylene rubber backing and mastic adhesive create a self-fusing seal that resists moisture and corrosion. It is rated for up to one thousand volts.
Who this suits and who should look elsewhere
Electricians and maintenance technicians needing a high-voltage, self-amalgamating tape for cable joints and motor leads will find this specification appropriate. Buyers who require a thinner tape for tight harness work or a different adhesive chemistry should consider other products. The operating range spans thirty-two to one hundred ninety-four degrees Fahrenheit.
65 mil thickness and self-fusing mastic adhesive
The 65 mil build combined with the mastic self-fusing adhesive determines whether this tape meets the insulation and environmental sealing demands of the job. Thinner general-purpose tapes will not provide the same dielectric strength or moisture block. Verify that the voltage rating and temperature window match the application requirements before purchase.

Questions about this item
How many rolls come in the PK10 pack of 3M 2228 tape?
The PK10 pack contains 10 rolls of 3M 2228 electrical tape, each measuring 2 inches wide by 10 feet long.
What does the 65 mil thickness mean for insulation performance on a 1,000 V circuit?
At 65 mils thick, the ethylene propylene rubber backing with mastic adhesive provides the dielectric strength rated for 1,000 V applications when wrapped correctly.
How does the self-fusing mastic adhesive behave across the 32 °F to 194 °F temperature range?
The self-fusing mastic bonds to itself without sticky residue, maintaining a moisture-tight seal from 32 °F up to 194 °F without melting or becoming brittle.
