Self-Amalgamating Tapes – Self-Fusing Rubber Tape for Waterproofing, Insulating & Emergency Repairs

Our Self-Amalgamating Tapes are premium-grade, self-fusing rubber tapes engineered for demanding electrical, industrial, automotive, marine and maintenance applications. When stretched and wrapped, the tape bonds to itself to form a seamless, uniform and waterproof protective layer—without glue, heat or special tools.

Made from high-quality ethylene propylene rubber (EPR), this tape provides exceptional resistance to UV exposure, moisture, saltwater, oils and chemicals, making it ideal for long-term outdoor and harsh-environment use. It forms a durable, flexible protective sheath around cable joints, terminations, pipework, hoses, connectors and emergency repair points.
