Product Description:
Automotive wire harness pvc tape deliver critical performance through specialized material formulations tailored to demanding vehicle environments. Key characteristics include:
-
Material Versatility: Common substrates include PVC for cost-effective insulation (105°C rating), PET cloth for superior abrasion/high-temperature resistance (150°C), and nonwoven fleece for noise/vibration damping12. Eco-friendly halogen-free variants are increasingly prevalent
-
Environmental Durability: Tapes must withstand wide temperature ranges (-40°C to 150°C), particularly near engines
. They resist moisture, UV degradation, automotive fluids (fuels, oils), and corrosive chemicals to ensure long-term integrity
-
Mechanical & Electrical Performance: Essential properties encompass sufficient tensile strength (typically 15-30 N/10mm), elongation (150-300%), consistent adhesion (peel strength per ISO 29862), and controlled unwinding force
. Dielectric strength (>40 kV/mm) provides reliable electrical insulation
-
Safety & Compliance: Flame retardancy meeting standards like UL 510 or VW60360 prevents fire propagation. Low VOC/SVOC emissions and fogging resistance are mandated for cabin air quality. Abrasion resistance protects against wear from vibration and sharp edges

Harness Tape Usage Method :
Harness tape is crucial for protecting automotive wire harnesses, ensuring insulation and durability against wear. The standard method involves these steps
1. Preparation: Gather tools like electrical tape, scissors, and a clean workspace. Clean the wire harness thoroughly to remove dust and debris for better adhesion.
2. Starting the Wrap: Begin at the harness end by overlapping the tape tightly twice. Maintain a consistent overlap of 1/2 to 1/3 the tape width (e.g., 6-10mm for 19mm tape) to avoid gaps or excessive bulk.
3. Wrapping Process: Pull the tape taut while wrapping along the harness, using smooth motions to ensure full coverage. Avoid over-tension to prevent damage, and layer evenly for uniform protection.
4. Finishing: End with another double overlap, cut the tape cleanly, and press firmly to secure it. Check for no loose ends, wrinkles, or exposed wires.
5. Inspection: Verify tightness, coverage, and compliance with specifications like size and alignment for reliability.
