Electrical tape Hellermann Tyton 712-00201

Hellermann Tyton 712-00201 electrical tape is a PVC insulating tape designed for reliable protection of electrical connections and wiring. With a length of 10 m, width of 19 mm and thickness of 0.31 mm, this tape provides a secure layer of insulation and mechanical protection for a wide range of indoor and controlled-environment applications. The tape is suitable for use in maintenance, installation and repair tasks where consistent dielectric properties and adhesion are required.

Advantages

The tape delivers stable electrical insulation and conforms well to irregular shapes and joints thanks to its balanced thickness and flexibility. Its 19 mm width offers practical coverage for common wiring and cable bundling tasks while the 10 m roll provides sufficient length for focused jobs or multiple small repairs. The material resists typical environmental factors encountered in controlled indoor settings and maintains adhesion on clean copper, PVC and similar surfaces.

Suitable for

• Insulating splices and terminations on low-voltage wiring
• Temporary repairs of cable sheath or conductor protection
• Cable bundling and marking in installations
• General electrical maintenance and DIY wiring projects

Key specifications

• Material: PVC insulating tape
• Length: 10 m
• Width: 19 mm
• Thickness: 0.31 mm
• Color: typically black (confirm available color before use)
• Adhesive type: pressure-sensitive for secure bonding

How to use

Ensure surfaces are clean, dry and free of oil or dust before application. Cut the required length, start wrapping at least one full turn around the conductor or joint, and overlap each pass by approximately half the tape width to form a continuous insulating layer. Apply consistent tension while wrapping to maintain conformity to the cable shape and avoid loose edges. For best results, finish the wrap with an additional outer layer to protect the edge and improve mechanical stability.

Usage recommendations

Use this tape for low-voltage electrical insulation and routine maintenance tasks in indoor or controlled environments. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, high temperatures, or aggressive chemicals which can reduce adhesive performance. For outdoor or high-temperature applications, select a tape rated specifically for those conditions.
