ARLON Self Fusing Tape (SFT), Flame Retardant SFT, LevelWrap®, MOX-Tape® and Rapid-Bond™ silicone self-fusing tapes are produced from specially formulated silicone rubber that allows them to bond only to themselves. The permanent bond to itself provides an insulating barrier resistant to moisture, ozone and corona over a wide temperature range. The tape can be easily removed from other substrates without leaving behind any residue. ARLON fusible tapes provide superior electrical insulation and have met the needs of thousands of demanding applications over the years.

Standard ARLON Self-Fusing Tape, LevelWrap, and MOX-Tape self-fusing tapes have a 24-month shelf-life.1

Features

  • Insulates with a single wrap
  • May be easily removed from other substrates with no residue left behind

ARLON Self Fusing Tape (available Flame Retardant) is an affordable, easy to order, and highly functional silicone self-fusing tape, designed first and foremost as a high-quality electrical tape. It is used in a wide variety of applications, including sealing, protective wrapping, tool safety, and many others. It is available in both supported and unsupported constructions.

ARLON MOX-Tape is available both unsupported and supported by fiberglass, providing tear resistance as needed designed to meet aerospace and defense specification and market requirements.

ARLON LevelWrap is an unsupported triangular tape, creating a flatter surface when wrapped.

ARLON unsupported Rapid-Bond fusible tapes are designed for applications requiring near instant bond formation and are available in both rectangular and triangular profiles.
