Engineered specifically for fire-resistant cables. Phlogopite mica paper core + double-sided glass fiber cloth + silicone resin binder. Delivers BS 6387-compliant circuit integrity under direct flame — buying critical time for evacuation and emergency systems.
A high-performance fire-resistant insulation tape engineered for the fire safety of electrical wires and cables. The three-layer laminated construction combines thermal survival, dielectric integrity, and mechanical robustness in a single tape.
Phlogopite mica tape is a high-performance fire-resistant insulation material engineered specifically for fire safety in electrical wires and cables. It's built on a foundation of selected phlogopite mica paper, reinforced on both sides with glass fiber cloth, bonded together with a high-temperature silicone resin binder, and finished through baking, pressing and precision slitting.
This three-layer construction ensures that cables maintain circuit integrity during fires — buying critical time for personnel evacuation and keeping emergency equipment (fire pumps, emergency lighting, smoke extraction) operating when it's needed most.
It's wrapped around the conductor (copper core) as the fire-resistant barrier layer between the core and the outer cable sheath, delivering the circuit integrity required by BS 6387 and similar international fire-survival cable standards.
Every property below is tested per batch in our QC laboratory. Full test reports available on request.
Maintains structural and insulation function at elevated temperatures (750 ± 50 °C). Complies with BS 6387 and similar international fire-resistant cable standards.
High insulation resistance (>500 MΩ) and 4.5 kV breakdown voltage — effectively protecting circuit safety under normal operating conditions.
Reinforced tape with tensile strength ≥125 N/15 mm, suitable for high-speed winding operations — minimizing breakage during cable production.
UL94 V0 flame retardancy rating — the material effectively stops flame propagation and self-extinguishes when the ignition source is removed.
Low smoke output at high temperature. Asbestos-free. Compliant with RoHS (2011/65/EU) and ELV (2000/53/EC) directives — friendly to environment and health.
Complete technical specifications with associated testing standards. Every parameter is verified per production batch in our in-house QC laboratory.
Phlogopite mica tape is widely used as the fire-resistant barrier in electrical wires and cables — wrapped around the copper conductor as the fire-resistant insulation layer between the core and outer sheath.

Follow these guidelines to maintain the tape's full performance envelope from factory shipment through final cable production.
Store in a dry, clean, room-temperature environment. Avoid direct sunlight and humidity to maintain the tape's dielectric and mechanical performance. Keep rolls in original packaging until use. Shelf life 12 months from production date when stored correctly.
Compatible with standard cable wrapping equipment. At room temperature, the tape offers excellent flexibility and is easy to process — suitable for high-speed helical winding around the conductor. Recommended overlap ratio 50% for full fire-barrier integrity.
