In addition to plumbing and electrical uses, self-fusing tape is also commonly used in various other applications. For example, it can be used in the construction industry for sealing and insulating joints and connections, and in the marine industry for repairing and waterproofing boat fittings and fixtures. Self-fusing tape is also often used in gardening and landscaping for tying plants to stakes and creating a waterproof seal around irrigation connections.

Constant wattage heat tape maintains a consistent heating output regardless of environmental conditions. While it can be more effective in areas with stable temperatures, users must carefully monitor and manage the system to prevent overheating and ensure safety.
