Scapa Insulative cable wrapping tapes perform a wide variety of functions including sacrificial curing (autoclave curing), binding, bedding, separating, and core identification. They are also used for laminating to sheathing to improve performance in cold impact testing.

Whilst generally these products act as a barrier to extrudate penetration, versions are available with pinholes where the venting of volatiles is an important consideration. Using woven Nylons and Polyesters this range offers high strength performance when used for binding applications and includes BT1 Bituminised Hessian for armour bedding and lead sheath protection within paper insulated cables.
