Data Sheet
July 2011
Scotch
®
Vinyl Electrical Tape 35 is a 7 mil (0,178 mm) polyvinyl chloride (PVC) color-
coding tape. Outstanding electrical and mechanical properties make this tape excellent
for use in phase identification, color coding of motor leads and piping systems, and for
marking safety areas. Scotch
®
Tape 35 operates over a wide range of temperatures –
up to 221°F (105°C); applies smoothly and conforms well above 32°F (0°C). This tape is
available in nine fade resistant colors.
UL Listed - UL 510 Standard “Insulating Tape” (product category OANZ), File E129200;
meets UL 510 labeling for “flame-retardant” for vinyl electrical tape.
CSA Certification; Standard. C22.2 No. 197-M1983 “PVC Insulating Tape,” File LR
48769.
RoHS 2002/95/EC
RoHS Compliant 2002/95/EC” means that the product or part (“Product”) does not contain any of the
substances in excess of the maximum concentration values in EU Directive 2002/95/EC, as amended by
Commission Decision 2005/618/EC, unless the substance is in an application that is exempt under RoHS. This

Applications
Color coding for phase identification, job identification and safety
Insulating electrical wiring
Protecting electrical conductors, motor leads and piping from moisture, alkalis, acids,
corrosion, abrasion and weather
Apply in half-lapped layers with sufficient tension to conform and produce a uniform
covering. In most applications, this tension will reduce the tape width to approximately
60% of its original width.
On a pigtail splice, wrap the tape beyond the end of the wire and then fold back and
over-wrap, leaving a protective cushion to resist cut-through.
Wrap uphill, taping from a smaller diameter to a larger diameter surface. Apply the
tape with no tension on the last wrap to prevent flagging.

Tape 35 is based on polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and/or its copolymers and has a
rubber-based, pressure-sensitive adhesive. The tape shall be 7 mils thick, and be UL
Listed and marked per UL Standard 510 as “Flame-Retardant.” The tape shall be
compatible with synthetic cable insulations, jackets and splicing compounds. The tape
will remain stable and will not telescope more than 0.1 inches when maintained at
temperatures below 122°F (50°C).
