Product Description
Do you need to safely and securely cover cables and wires? JVCC Wire-Line Cable Cover Tape is the perfect solution. This heavy-duty tape features an interior portion that's free of adhesive so it's easy to thread the wires for free motion underneath. This premium-grade zone coated gaffers tape does not leave behind any film or residue. Since it's residue-free, it's the perfect wire concealer tape for film, television, conventions and trade shows, A/V and entertainment applications. JVCC cable cover tape lets you set up temporarily protected wiring and then tear it down cleanly with zero surface damage.
This wire-line cable cover tape is 12-mil and provides 50 ounces per inch of adhesion, so it will stick to most surfaces at your special event. FindTape offers JVCC wire-line tape in 4-inch wide rolls. This tape is constructed from Scapa 225 source material.

QUESTION: Can you use this product on vinyl plank flooring with out it cause damage?
ANSWER: We asked JVCC and their response was: As long as the wire line gaffers will not be on the floor for an extended period of time it should be fine. It will depend on it how long it will be on the floor, how much traffic walks on the tape, heat, weather, etc. and what the floor is cleaned with. Best practice would be to test on an inconspicuous part of the floor first to see if removes as desired. Thank you.

QUESTION: Is this paintable?
ANSWER: You would want to look for an uncoated cloth tape (not vinyl-coated like gaffers or polyethylene-coated like duct). Scapa 175 is one example.
User Reviews
hot melt rubber (synthetic)
Offers the widest range of application flexibility available. Exhibits excellent processing performance whether manually or automatically applied. Has superior tensile strength, adhesion properties and holding force which ensures consistent, reliable seals. Hot melt adhesive will bond faster to a surface which is referred to as quick-grab or quick-stick. It typically has higher tack (will feel stickier to the touch), but is also softer. It has lower heat resistance, shear resistance, and sometimes UV resistance than an acrylic adhesive. NOTE: it is called hot melt because the adhesive is applied hot by the manufacturer and then hardens as it cools (you do not need to apply heat to the tape yourself).
natural rubber
Properties are similar to that of hot melt rubber, but natural rubber often holds where other adhesives won't (recycled fibers, dust, cold, heat and heavy loads). It provides good overall adhesion and moisture resistance.
acrylic
Offer excellent performance, especially for applications in temperatures less than 40°F and greater then 120°F. It provides excellent clarity, has high shear strength, is usually more permanent/durable even when exposed to moisture, and it ages well over extended periods in fluorescent and sunlight. Since it remains clear for the life of the application and does not yellow over time it is ideal for applications such as sealing white cartons. While it has good initial adhesion it does take 24-48 hours to cure and to achieve its maximum bond strength (has gradual adhesion buildup). Another difference between hot melt rubber and acrylic adhesive is if you fold tape over making the two adhesive sides touch the acrylic adhesive will remain attached to the carrier (e.g. paper, film) while a hot melt adhesive will stick to itself and pull off of the carrier. It is the best choice for clarity, UV resistance and aging characteristics.
silicone
Is great for extreme temperature applications since silicone adhesive can work in continuous operating temperatures from -100°F to 500°F. They also exhibit good chemical resistance, retain electrical properties, and remove cleanly with little or no residue.
zinc oxide
Zinc oxide based adhesive formula is a skin-friendly adhesive which is commonly used on sports medicine tapes.
Thickness, AKA caliper or gauge, refers to the distance from one surface of a tape backing, or adhesive, to the other.
1 mil = 1/1000 of an inch
Examples: 1/16 inch = 62.5 mils; 1/32 inch = 31.25 mils
Lower gauge gloves are heavier - have thicker construction, fewer stiches knitted per inch and offer less dexterity.
Higher gauge gloves are lighter - have thinner/finer construction, more stitches knitted per inch and offer more dexterity.
Gloves offered typically runs from 7 to 18 (12 and 13 are in the middle of the scale).
