Product Description

Diversitech 6-9718 Foam Insulation Tape

The DiversiTech® 1/8 in. x 2 in. x 30 ft. roll of foam insulation tape can be used on hot or cold pipes. It fits well around valves and fittings and is easily cut and molded. Foam Insulation Tape is a flexible, multi-use pressure sensitive tape used in a number of commercial and industrial applications, primarily as a sealant and insulator. This 1/8” x 2” x 30’ insulation roll is made of 1/8” thick, lightweight black colored closed cell polyethylene foam with a high quality double coated adhesive on one side. Foam Insulation Tape is self-adhesive and easy to cut or bend.  It provides a quick and easy solution to insulating pipes.  The high moldability of the product allows Foam Insulation Tape to be easily manipulated around valves and fittings. Foam Insulation Tape features high temperature resistance, low water absorption, low moisture vapor transmission, good buoyancy, excellent thermal insulation and chemical resistance.

Directions

  • Simply peel the backing away from the tape and wrap the tape around the piping.

What is a Mil Thickness?

  • Thickness, AKA caliper or gauge, refers to the distance from one surface of a tape backing, or adhesive, to the other.
  • 1 MIL = 1/1000 OF AN INCH
  • Examples: 1/16 inch = 62.5 mils; 1/32 inch = 31.25 mils

Additional Information

How are adhesives different?

  • HOT MELT RUBBER (SYNTHETIC): Offers the widest range of application flexibility available. Exhibits excellent processing performance whether manually or automatically applied. Has superior tensile strength, adhesion properties and holding force which ensures consistent, reliable seals. Hot melt adhesive will bond faster to a surface which is referred to as quick-grab or quick-stick. It typically has higher tack (will feel stickier to the touch) but is also softer. It has lower heat resistance, shear resistance, and sometimes UV resistance than an acrylic adhesive. NOTE: it is called hot melt because the adhesive is applied hot by the manufacturer and then hardens as it cools (you do not need to apply heat to the tape yourself).
  • NATURAL RUBBER: Properties are similar to that of hot melt rubber, but natural rubber often holds where other adhesives won't (recycled fibers, dust, cold, heat and heavy loads). It provides good overall adhesion and moisture resistance.
  • ACRYLIC: Offer excellent performance, especially for applications in temperatures less than 40°F and greater then 120°F. It provides excellent clarity, has high shear strength, is usually more permanent/durable even when exposed to moisture, and it ages well over extended periods in fluorescent and sunlight. Since it remains clear for the life of the application and does not yellow over time it is ideal for applications such as sealing white cartons. While it has good initial adhesion it does take 24-48 hours to cure and to achieve its maximum bond strength (has gradual adhesion buildup). Another difference between hot melt rubber and acrylic adhesive is if you fold tape over making the two adhesive sides touch the acrylic adhesive will remain attached to the carrier (e.g., paper, film) while a hot melt adhesive will stick to itself and pull off of the carrier. It is the best choice for clarity, UV resistance and aging characteristics.
  • SILICONE: Is great for extreme temperature applications since silicone adhesive can work in continuous operating temperatures from -100°F to 500°F. They also exhibit good chemical resistance, retain electrical properties, and remove cleanly with little or no residue.
  • ZINC OXIDE: Zinc oxide based adhesive formula is a skin-friendly adhesive which is commonly used on sports medicine tapes.
