An industrial control box is not just an accessory; it’s a critical component in a well-oiled industrial environment, facilitating uninterrupted operations and enhancing safety.
PVC marking tape is a versatile and essential tool for a wide range of industries and applications. Whether used in construction, electrical work, plumbing, or general maintenance, PVC marking tape serves as a convenient solution for marking and identifying various objects and areas.

Rubber tapes repel moisture and are a great solution for outdoor applications or in manholes where water may occasionally seep in.
3M also makes an electrical tape made of silicone rubber for applications where Class “H” (180°C/356°F) temperatures are encountered i.e., silicone rubber cables.
It is also important to ensure that you are purchasing a control box with the features that you need, and not one that will drive the price up with unnecessary features.
Similar to silicone rubber tape, rubber repair tape is constructed with high-quality materials to ensure safety and reliability. The manufacturing process is held to the same high standards, allowing for product customization and printing options to meet specific needs.
We are pleased to stock a number of different self-fusing tapes. All are electrically insulating though some are often used for sealing work (e.g. fixing a leaking hose) in addition to electrical applications.
In addition to organization and protection, a wiring loom wrap also helps to maintain the integrity of the electrical system by preventing moisture, dirt, and debris from infiltrating the wires. This is especially important in an automotive environment, where the wiring is exposed to a wide range of harsh conditions, such as extreme temperatures, vibrations, and chemicals.
Some common applications of butyl rubber tape include using it for window and door installations, sealing gutters, fixing automotive leaks, and even in HVAC systems to create airtight seals. In the construction industry, contractors often use it for flashing around windows and roofs to prevent leaks during construction and in finished structures.
In addition to our wide selection of tapes, at cableties-online we stock a range of electrical accessories, including heat shrink tubing and wire connectors. If you are unsure which type of tape your project needs, our staff is on hand to advise. Call us on 01623 706241 or alternatively send us an email at sales@cableties-online.co.uk with your query and we will be happy to help.

Organizing cables can be a cumbersome task. Avoid exacerbating your frustration by choosing an easy-to-use electrical tape. The tape should be easy to handle. Check to see that the tape can be torn by hand and easily wrapped around wires. Its adhesive should be strong enough to withstand the conditions of where it will be located.
Our self-amalgamating tape is RoHS compliant, to give you the peace of mind that it contains none of the restrictive materials banned under the Restriction of Hazardous Restrictions (RoHS) and offers REACH compliance. This demonstrates that the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) has passed it safe for use without harm to the end user. Available in two popular widths and three lengths, this forms part of our extensive range of tapes that we always have in stock.
Busbars are conductive material strips used to distribute electrical energy within power distribution systems. Given the high voltage levels these systems often operate under, the insulation of busbars becomes paramount. Proper insulation safeguards against electrical arcing, shorts, and leakage currents, which can lead to catastrophic failures and safety hazards.
It’s common for manufacturers to use poor quality components in cheap control boxes, which can result in an unwanted well water pump repair.

Butyl tape is perfect for areas in the home where leaks and corrosion occur because it is waterproof and highly adhesive. Use butyl tapes for roofing repairs, leaking pipes, ventilation systems, etc.
3M rubber tapes have operating temperatures ranging from 176°F (80°C) to 221°F (105°C). Some, Linerless Rubber Splicing Tape 130C and Rubber Splicing Tape 23, have overloads temperatures up to 266°F (130°C). Because of this high heat attribute; there are many industrial settings where it is common to use rubber tape in lower voltage applications to moisture seal, pad and insulate:
