FORWA Self-Fusing Cable Repair Tape
High-performance insulation · Self-fusing sealing · No tools required · Instant repair
FORWA · SINCE 1993
Product Introduction
FORWA Self-Fusing Cable Repair Tape is a high-performance insulation material specially used for repairing cable joints and damaged parts. The product uses PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) material and has excellent electrical insulation performance, waterproof sealing, and mechanical protection functions.
No heating or special tools are required. A firm repair layer can be formed by hand wrapping, making it an ideal choice for cable maintenance and emergency repair. The product features instant adhesion, good self-fusing properties, and plastic deformation, and can tightly fit various complex shapes. It saves more than 80% of costs compared with replacing cables. A single joint repair takes only 15–30 minutes, and the repaired cable life can reach 5–10 years.
