tesa® Professional 4600 Xtreme Conditions

Self-welding silicon tape for an instant hermetic seal


Product description

tesa® 4600 is a self-welding silicon tape that is glued onto its own base. The flexible material fits tightly to various surfaces, thus providing an instant hermetic seal. The self-welding repair tape can be used both indoors and outdoors and also achieves reliable results on oily, dirty or wet surfaces. Even the application under water is possible. The silicon base ensures that the robust tape provides a high resistance to various chemicals, oils, acids, solvents, salt water, UV exposure and high temperatures (from -65° C to +260° C). The silicon tape can also be used for temporary bonds and can be removed at any time without problems. tesa® 4600 is a true jack of all trades and is used by professional craftsmen for many kinds of tasks, e.g. insulating cables or for short-term repairs of water pipes.

  • Stretch the tape to at least double its normal length. Apply it tight on the surface and overlap it tight around itself
  • To serve the best purpose for standard electrical applications wrap 3 time with 100% overlapping.
  • For high pressure leaks (e.g. sealing of pipes) the tape should be stretched very tight and several layers should be used. Depending on the leak and pipe material the tape can withstand a pressure of 12 bar max.
Please use max. 4 layers with approx. 100mm tape on both sides of the damaged pipe
  • Due to the self-fusing process, after applying the tape on itself, a permanent bond is created. Therefore, the tape can be used once.
