It is what has the right temp ratings, fuel and oil.
High Temperature Silicone Rubber Self-Fusing End Wrap Tape
meeting A-A-59163, MIL-I-46852, MIL-I-22444 Specifications.
High Temperature Silicone Rubber End-Wrap Compression Tape is the perfect choice for protecting hydraulic hoses and lines, pneumatic lines, fuel & oil lines, brake lines, wires and cables from exposure to high and extreme heat conditions.
The special formulation of silicone rubber sheds molten metals, slag, welding splatter, electrical or grinding sparks and contamination. End Wrap Tape also provides protection from ozone, UV and abrasion.
The Type II tape has a blue stripe running down the center as an aid to performing a standard 50% overlap when wrapping the tape around firesleeve, wire, hoses and cables.Silicone Rubber End Wrap Self Fusing Compression Tape AA59163 MILI46852 MILI22444Pure Silicone Rubber High-Temp End Wrap Tape Silicone End Wrap Tape is self bonding to itself and our silicone rubber coated sleeves and tapes, providing a waterproof/gas tight end to the installation of Sleeve over hoses and cables.
The special silicone formulation of this tape self-fuses (self-amalgamating) when stretched and over-wrapped. Completely flexible at cold temperatures and can be used to +500ºF / +260ºC continuous exposure. Does not support combustion and resists heat, flame, welding splatter, molten metals, solder drips, slag, sparks, Ozone, UV light and contamination.
