PVC Insulation Tape Scotch 4401RED, red, 6000 V rated, 10 m length

Scotch 4401RED is a red PVC insulation tape designed for electrical insulation, repair and protection of cables and wiring. The tape is a flexible, high‑elongation PVC film with a pressure‑sensitive adhesive that conforms to uneven surfaces, unwinds easily and adheres without strong pressurising. It is rated for electrical protection up to 6,000 V, is self‑extinguishing and suitable for colour coding, phase identification, securing loose cables and protecting worn cable sheaths. The roll supplied measures 15 mm x 10 m and the tape performs reliably in temperatures from 0°C to 90°C.

Advantages

The PVC backing provides high flexibility and good conformability to irregular shapes while the adhesive bonds without heavy pressure. The tape is certified to IEC 454‑3‑1 and VDE tested, offers dielectric protection up to 6,000 V, and resists ignition. Its red colour enables clear visual identification and phase marking. The 15 mm x 10 m roll format is suitable for general maintenance, installation and repair tasks.

How to use

Clean and dry the surface before applying the tape. Unwind the tape and wrap it tightly around the cable or joint with slight overlap to ensure full coverage. Press the tape down lightly during application to secure the adhesive. For phase marking or colour coding, wrap a short length around the conductor or insulation as required. Cut the tape with scissors or tear by hand if applicable.

Usage recommendations

Use the tape only on cables and installations within the specified temperature and voltage ranges. Do not use the tape as a substitute for proper connectors or mechanical protection where required. For permanent or safety‑critical electrical joints, follow applicable standards and local regulations.
