Applications in Kenya

• Power Cables & Sub-stations: Primary electrical insulation for all solid dielectric cable splices and terminations up to 69 kV.
• Moisture Sealing: Water-proofing high-voltage joints, outdoor electrical connections, and motor leads in high-humidity or industrial environments.
• Bus Bar Insulation: Padded insulation and corrosion protection for electrical bus bars in distribution panels.
• Telecommunications & Utility Lines: Protective jacketing on high-voltage splices and repair of damaged outdoor cable sheaths.

Why Choose Genuine 3M Scotch Tape 23 in Kenya?

In humid, dusty, or outdoor installations across East Africa, low-quality electrical tapes harden, crack, or allow moisture ingress—leading to flashovers and power downtime. 3M Scotch Rubber Splicing Tape 23 uses a specialized rubber-resin adhesive and EPR base that fuses into a solid mass. It resists UV, ozone, moisture, and chemical exposure for long-term safety and reliability.

Applications include primary insulation for splicing all solid dielectric cables moisture sealing electrical connections and jacketing on high voltage splices and terminations.
