Useful for "see-through" identification on wire harnesses
Both CHR 2355 and CHR C Tapes offer superior thermal stability, weather resistance, and non-toxic performance. Their thin, conformable FEP backing ensures versatility across industrial, electrical, and aerospace environments. Available in various widths and with or without liners, these tapes are a reliable solution for high-performance insulation and identification needs.
To differentiate between C tape and 2355, the C tape is designed to perform in very low temperature environments such as outer space or when the electrical insulation is cooled by liquid nitrogen. 2355 can still work in low temperature environments, but the C tape will have better adhesion at cryogenic temperatures.
FEP tapes are more than just electrical insulation layers. They possess excellent arc resistance and arc track resistance, meaning they can endure the effects of an electrical arc without easily igniting or forming a conductive path. They are frequently used in aerospace wire harnesses due to their ability to resist arc tracking, particularly at the ends of the wires where the wire is connected to the plug."
