ALUMINUM TAPE (APPLICATION TAPE)

Heat tracing cables must be affixed to the pipe or vessel they are tracing using the correct tape, as the system’s performance can suffer when not installed correctly.

Aluminum tape comes in a 150’-long roll and is used when tracing plastic pipes and/or vessels. Aluminum tape is applied along the length of the pipe or vessel with the heating cable and a final run of aluminum tape placed over top of the assembly. It secures the cable and provides an effective path of heat transfer to the pipe or vessel being traced.
