Overview:

Fixman Self Amalgamating Black Repair & Insulating Tape 25mm (193082) is a self-fusing rubber tape designed for quick, dependable repairs and insulation work.

Fixman 25mm Wide Self Amalgamating Tape – Key FAQs

• What does “self amalgamating” tape mean?

  • It means the tape bonds to itself when stretched and wrapped, forming a single fused layer without using adhesive, which helps create a strong, waterproof seal.

• Is this tape suitable for electrical insulation?

  • Yes, it’s commonly used for insulating and protecting electrical connections, especially where you want a sealed wrap rather than sticky adhesive residue is needed.

• Can it be used for hose or pipe repairs?

  • Yes, it can be used for temporary repairs on hoses and pipes by creating a tight wrap that seals as it fuses to itself, helping reduce leaks in emergencies.

• Does it stick to metal, plastic or rubber?

  • It doesn’t rely on sticking to the surface like adhesive tapes. Instead, it seals by fusing to itself, so correct stretching and overlap are key for performance.

• How do I get the best seal with self-fusing tape?

  • Stretch the tape as you apply it and overlap each turn consistently. A tighter wrap with good overlap gives a stronger, more watertight result.

• Is it suitable for outdoor repairs?

  • It can be used for weatherproofing and sealing, but always check suitability for the specific application and avoid use where a permanent, safety-critical repair is required.
