If you've ever spilled a glass of water on a roll of Scotch tape, you know that many tapes lose their stickiness when they get wet. Water-activated tape, however, is unique because its adhesive is only activated by water. When the adhesive on water-activated tape is moistened, it bonds to whatever surface it is applied to. If you apply water-activated tape to a box and the box later winds up stuck in the rain, you can rest assured that the adhesive will remain intact.

The rubber is water-resistant, a highly appreciated perk to those working in humid environments. Rubber tape is usually used for splicing and terminating wires or cables up to 69 kilovolts.

Choosing a Control Box

Installation of fire-resistant drywall tape is much like standard tape, but it does require attention to detail to ensure optimal performance. It is often applied in tandem with a fire-resistant joint compound, which further enhances the fire-resistant properties of the completed wall. Proper installation techniques, including ensuring the tape is adequately bedded in the compound, are vital for achieving a seamless finish that also adheres well to fire safety standards.
