What tapes will be useful for installation work?
Installation work is time-consuming and requires knowledge, experience and concentration. This is because they are very often related to the installation of electrical cables. There is no doubt, therefore, that maintaining an appropriate level of security is absolutely the most important thing here. Insulating tapes are used for this very purpose. The main task is to insulate electrical cables, so they must have appropriate properties and be made of durable materials, for example high-quality plastics.
Remember that cables are exposed to various factors, such as high temperatures, UV rays or flooding, so it is important that they are highly resistant (such as waterproof). Such tapes are also called electrical insulating tapes. The role of insulating tapes is therefore very important, but other types of tapes, such as warning tapes, steel tapes or perlon tapes, are also useful for installation work.
Safety in construction work with warning tape
Warning tapes are extremely important, both during installation work and other tasks. Their main task is to ensure our safety by marking the area that we should not cross. Used wherever there is a possibility of danger. Warning tapes available in rolls, made of PVC, are easy to apply and visible because they are colorful or patterned, making them eye-catching, ensuring that everyone will see them. They always work, regardless of changing weather conditions, temperature and humidity. They do not lose their properties, so they can be used indoors and outdoors. At the same time, they are resistant to tearing, and it is no accident that they are used in construction works where the conditions are difficult.
When is it worth choosing steel tape?
Steel tape is another series of reliable tapes useful in installation works. Its main task is to protect loads against both mechanical damage and their uncontrolled movement. They provide invaluable support in many industries, especially construction, metallurgy, textile and maritime. Depending on the requirements (type of cargo, storage method, etc.), various types of steel tapes are used, such as plain, galvanized, painted, galvanized, blued. Each of them has its own specificity and is used for different tasks.
Steel straps work perfectly with manual and pneumatic strapping machines, so they can be used to tie loads in both the pin and pinless systems. It is also worth paying attention to their rounded edges, which increases safety of use. They are available in various sizes - widths and thicknesses.
Use and advantages of perlon tape
Perlon tape is an invaluable aid in various tasks, especially those related to hanging and organization. It is characterized by very high durability and resistance to weather conditions, and at the same time it is very flexible. Commonly used wherever paintings, decorations, exhibition elements are hung, i.e. in galleries, museums, etc. Even though this installation tape is very solid, it is designed in such a way that it is practically invisible. Only the hangers can be seen, not the tape, which makes this solution both functional and aesthetic. Various types of perlon tapes are offered. They can be equipped with a hook, which makes hanging items safe and stable without any problems. Another type are steel cable belts - flexible and durable. Tapes without visible connectors look interesting and have a positive impact on visual issues.
