Cotran’s KC71 Electrical Tape is a highly conformable, self-fusing Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPR) based high insulating voltage tape. KC71 has a “snakeskin” liner that is easily removed as the tape is applied. KC71 is made from ethylene propylene rubber (EPR) and has similar uses as silicone self-amalgamating tape but is non-vulcanizing and has good moisture resistance. It is primarily used for insulating moisture sealing joints, splices and connections in electrical cables up to high voltages. Its self-fusing material creates a moisture tight seal, easily rated for 90°C continuous operating temperature and overload temperatures up to 130°C, with easily removable liner protects from dust and dirt during installation.
After these years market development, Cotran’s KC71 self-amalgamating tape has successfully been supplied for European, Middle-East, Asian and African countries, widely applied in Italy, France, Germany, Greece, Spain, Dubai, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Malaysia, Philippine, Indonesia, Myanmar and Thailand etc.,
