Banda Autovulcanizanta

Self-amalgamating tape PIB 2501 made by SCAPA is based on PIB (Polyisobutylene) rubber. It is a versatile material for waterproofing,
corrosion protection, jointing and repair of cables - used indoors and outdoors. Product properties and correct application ensure
waterproof connections (for fresh and sea water) in a wide range of temperatures.
This self-amalgamating tape provides basic protection of connections in power distribution systems, telecommunications, RF installations -
especially outdoors, e.g.:

* Connections of coaxial cables (F-connectors)
* Connections of CCTV cables (BNC and F connectors)
* Connections of UTP/FTP cables
* Connections of coaxial cables in WLAN devices (N, SMA, SMA/RP and other connectors)
* Connections of coaxial cables from WLAN devices to external antennas or access points (N, SMA/RP connectors)

Distinguishing features
* The tape amalgamates rapidly when applied under tension;
* Wide operating temperature range: -40 ... +90 oC;
* Compatibility with a wide range of rubber and plastic dielectric cable insulation (e.g. PE, PVC, butyl, neoprene);
* High resistance to prolonged immersion in water and excellent resistance to ozone;
* The tape can be removed cleanly from most surfaces - ideal for temporary repairs;
* The tape is interleaved with a disposable plastic liner.

It is non-adhesive tape - the sealing effect is maintained due to self-amalgamating between the layers of the tape. The surface for applying
has to be dry, dust- and grease-free. Installation temperature has to be above 0oC (the higher temperature the shorter time needed for self-
amalgamating - at 20oC it takes about 24 hours). The final wrapping is void-free and homogeneous, tightly bound to the surface. It cannot be
unwrapped - the only way of removing the tape is longitudinal incision. The tape does not react with the substrate nor does it leave marks
on it.
