If dangerous faults occur, you want an electrical arc proofing tape that outperforms to minimize damage; Scotch® flame-retardant tape 77 is that tape. It provides fault arc protection to nearby, wrapped cables and cable accessories when used to cover and insulate splices. When exposed to high temperatures, its intumescent elastomer backing is designed to create an insulating buildup of thick, charred matter. This UL listed and RoHS 2011/65/EU Compliant adhesive is formulated to expand in fire to produce a char accumulation between the cable and the flames. These act as a firewall, providing a necessary fire barrier and heat shield to buffer neighboring cables and accessories.

• Standard roll sizes for fast convenient installation
• White gray color of Scotch® tape 77 White allows for the easy identification of fire damage areas
• To arc proof high energy power cables that may be exposed to arc fault generated heat and flames from nearby failures of other high energy cables (any cables within 20 in are considered to be exposed)
• This tape is 600V rated and is suitable to protect most types of electrical cables when exposed to potential failures in an adjacent cable
• It is designed with a flexible unsupported elastomer, which makes it easy to apply and easy to remove for cable inspection
