3M™ Scotch® Linerless Rubber Splicing Tape 130C: High-Performance Thermal Dissipation & Insulation

Scotch® Linerless Rubber Splicing Tape 130C is a highly conformable, 30-mil (0.762 mm) thick, Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPR) high-voltage insulating tape. Distinguished by its linerless design, it allows for faster, more efficient wrapping without the waste or complexity of a sacrificial liner.

This premium-grade tape is engineered to provide primary electrical insulation for voltages up to 69kV. Its unique formulation offers industry-leading thermal conductivity, allowing heat to dissipate from the splice effectively, thereby reducing the operating temperature and extending the service life of the cable system.

Key Technical Advantages:

  • Linerless Efficiency: Eliminates the need for liner removal, reducing application time and job-site debris—ideal for tight spaces and overhead work.

  • High Thermal Conductivity: Specifically designed to dissipate heat, preventing "hot spots" in high-load cable splices.

  • Superior Moisture Sealing: Provides an immediate, void-free, and moisture-tight seal that resists UV, ozone, and chemical exposure.

  • Self-Fusing Properties: The tape fuses to itself instantly upon application, forming a solid mass that maintains stable electrical properties under stress.

  • Flame Retardant: Formulated to meet rigorous safety standards, offering protection in volatile industrial environments.

Application

3M Scotch 130C is the professional choice for utility infrastructure, heavy industrial plants, and renewable energy projects:

  • Primary Insulation for Splices: Rated for all solid dielectric cable splices through 69kV.

  • Moisture Sealing for High-Voltage Terminations: Creating a permanent weather-proof barrier for outdoor terminations and indoor switchgear.

  • Bus Bar Insulation: Protecting high-voltage bus bars in substations and industrial control centers.

  • Cable Jacket Repair: Providing a robust, self-fusing layer to restore the integrity of damaged cable jackets in both indoor and outdoor environments.

  • Seal and Padding: Wrapping irregular-shaped connectors and lugs to prevent mechanical abrasion and environmental ingress.
