Description
Key Features
Superior Waterproofing and Sealing Properties
RCS-31 is designed with an excellent waterproof barrier, ensuring the integrity of cables and preventing moisture from entering critical areas in harsh, moisture-prone mining environments. The tape’s ability to create a watertight seal protects cables and conduits from water damage and corrosion.
Strong Adhesion to Metal and Cable Jackets
The tape offers superior adhesion to various materials, including metal surfaces and cable jackets. This ensures a long-lasting bond that can withstand heavy-duty applications, even in extreme mining conditions where other tapes may fail.
Elastic Properties for Irregular Shapes
RCS-31’s elasticity allows it to conform easily to irregular shapes, such as cable connectors and joints, providing full coverage and a reliable seal. This makes it ideal for splicing, repairing, and sealing cable terminations and joints, even in non-uniform areas.
Easy to Operate and Install
Clearly marked and designed for ease of use, the RCS-31 tape simplifies the installation process, reducing the chance of installation errors. The straightforward application steps save time and increase efficiency, even in high-pressure mining environments where quick repairs are needed.
Dual-Layer Construction
The outer layer consists of a flexible, elastic insulation material, while the inner layer contains waterproof mastic for superior sealing performance. This dual-layer construction provides enhanced durability, flexibility, and sealing ability to protect cables from harsh elements.
UV-Resistance and Durability
Constructed with cross-linked materials, the RCS-31 tape is resistant to UV radiation, ensuring that it will not crack or degrade over time, even with prolonged exposure to outdoor or high-exposure areas in mining environments.
Wide Operating Temperature Range
The tape is capable of withstanding extreme temperatures ranging from -40°C to 90°C, making it suitable for a variety of environments, from freezing cold underground mines to high-heat industrial applications.
