Customer Reviews

Scotch® Rubber Splicing Tape 23 is rated 4.5 out of 5 by 2.

Rated 5 out of 5 by self vulcanizing tape from Magical I have been using this since about 1980. I could not find it one time, but the store had a different brand. I assumed that they were all the same, but it was junk! After a year or two in the sun, the Brand X had fallen apart! This lasts for many years, but better if you over coat it with Scotch® Super 33+ Vinyl Electrical Tape, which also is an accept no substitutes product! Brand X will fail! Then, coat it with Scotchkote™ Electrical Coating FD, in brush-top 15-oz. can Product No. SCOTCHKOTE FD UPC: 051128-60151 3M ID: 80611604135

Rated 4 out of 5 by RyanWorks from It sticks to itself and not much else! Got the .75 inch through our company supply and it has a good stretch and sticks to itself very securely. Also once the end is wrapped it stays in place without additional standard electrical tape.
