About Vinyl (PVC)

Vinyl (PVC) is the primary ingredient of 3M vinyl electrical tape. It has good resistance against rain, fire, and static electricity. Finished vinyl products are non-toxic and tasteless, and have no stimulation to human body. Vinyl is easy to process and colorize, thus its products can be made in different shapes and colors.

3M Electrical Vinyl Tape Products for Base Station

In base station construction, most sites are using 3M electrical vinyl tapes for insulation. Sanyuan provide common 3M electrical vinyl tapes such as 3M scotch 33, 3M scotch 88, 3M scotch electrical tape 35, and 3M electrical tape 1712 for base station.

3M Electrical Vinyl Tape Difference

3M Scotch 33 is 3M electrical vinyl tapes' bestseller. This tape has wide applicable temperature, good adhesion, and moderate breaking strength. It is suitable in most scenarios.

3M Scotch 88 is a modified version of 3M Scotch 33. It is thicker (8.5 mils vs 7mils), and its breaking strength is a little higher (20 lbs./in. vs 15 lbs./in.). However, its adhesion is slightly weaker than 3M Scotch 33 tape (25 oz./in vs 28 oz./in. @22⁰C).

3M scotch electrical tape 35 is the only color tape of all 3M electrical vinyl tapes. Its colors are Blue, Brown, Gray, Green, Orange, Red, Violet, Yellow, and White. This tape is not suitable for subzero environments.

3M electrical tape 1712 (1700 series) is designed as a low-cost electrical vinyl tape solution. It sacrifices performance in elongation and operating temperature range while keeps a similar performance in room temperature as 3M Scotch 33. This tape is neither suitable for subzero environment nor environments above 105 degree centigrade.

3M Electrical Vinyl Tapes' Application in Base Station

3M scotch 33, 3M scotch 88, 3M scotch electrical tape 35, and 3M electrical tape 1712 are useful in base station to provide insulation to the connection part of the main cables, antennas, and base station cabinet. These tapes are also used to fix damaged cables. Usually 3M Scotch 33 and Scotch 88 are all we need. 3M scotch electrical tape 35 is specifically used to mark the ends of feeder cable in the cable layout. For appropriate environment, we may use 3M 1712 to lower the cost.
