PET Cloth Wire Harness Tape
OPALUS PACK is a manufacturer of pet cloth wire harness tape made with woven polyester PET fabric backing and acrylic or rubber pressure-sensitive adhesive. This polyester cloth wire harness tape is produced for automotive harness protection where abrasion resistance, controlled thickness, low odor, low VOC reference, and flame retardant options may be checked before approval. Unlike a broad wire harness tape category page, this product focuses on one material system: PET cloth backing, adhesive selection, and sample-tested harness performance.
- Backing: PET cloth / woven polyester fabric
- Adhesive: Acrylic PSA or rubber PSA
- Thickness: 0.15 mm-0.30 mm by grade
- Colors: Black, orange, gray, white, or project color
- Widths: 9 mm, 19 mm, 25 mm, 32 mm, 50 mm
- Use: Body harness, engine compartment harness, EV harness
Key Features
Product Overview
PET Cloth Wire Harness Tape is a single material-type product, not a general wrapping tape group. The woven polyester fabric backing resists cable-edge friction, plastic clips, metal brackets, and repeated harness movement, while staying flexible for curved bundles, connector branches, and compact routing areas.
OPALUS PACK produces PET fabric harness tape with rubber PSA or acrylic PSA according to harness location. Rubber grades suit fast tack, hand tearability, and smooth manual work on dashboard wiring, door harnesses, trunk cable routing, and other body harness areas. Acrylic grades suit higher temperature resistance, aging stability, cleaner holding, and engine compartment protection.
During sample review, customers check more than adhesion. Typical factory test ranges include 0.15 mm-0.30 mm thickness, 2.5-6.5 N/cm peel adhesion, 60-250 N/cm tensile strength, and 10%-40% elongation. Trial wrapping should also check edge curling, flagging after bending, unwind feel, odor, fogging reference, and compatibility with PVC, PE, PP, XLPE, or halogen-free cable jackets.
Benefits
- Polyester cloth backing: Resists abrasion from movement, clips, brackets, and cable-edge contact.
- Route-based adhesive: Rubber PSA supports quick tack; acrylic PSA supports heat and aging resistance.
- Flexible fitting: Sits closely around cable branches without making the harness bulky.
- Stable unwind: Helps workers keep consistent tension during manual or semi-automatic assembly.
- Interior approval support: Low odor, low VOC, and fogging reference can be checked.
- Specification control: Width tolerance, roll edge quality, adhesion, strength, and elongation can be confirmed.
How does PET cloth backing improve harness protection?
PET cloth backing gives pet cloth wire harness tape a stronger working surface than ordinary wrapping materials. The woven fabric helps resist rubbing, cable-edge pressure, and repeated contact inside the vehicle body or warmer routing areas. It also stays soft enough for branches and uneven harness shapes. Abrasion reference can be checked from LV312 Class A-Class D by grade, while noise damping is reviewed with route, thickness, and backing softness.

Applications
- Body harnesses needing abrasion protection, flexible fitting, and steady unwind
- Dashboard wiring, door harnesses, seat wiring, and trunk cable routing
- Engine compartment harnesses using acrylic grades with -40 C to +125 C or +150 C options
- EV wire harness production requiring orange identification and cable jacket compatibility
- Harness assembly plants using manual or semi-automatic taping with controlled roll edge quality
Which adhesive system is better for your wire harness assembly?
The adhesive system should be selected by harness location, temperature requirement, and installation method. Rubber PSA is practical when fast initial tack, hand tearability, and flexible fitting are needed for interior body harnesses. Acrylic PSA is usually selected for higher heat resistance, stronger aging performance, cleaner holding, and better resistance to automotive operating conditions. For engine compartment or EV harness production, acrylic grades should be checked with abrasion class, peel adhesion, VOC or fogging reference, and cable jacket compatibility before sample approval.
FAQ
Is this tape the same as ordinary auto wire harness tape?
No. It focuses on PET cloth backing with a pressure-sensitive adhesive system for automotive harness protection.
Should I choose rubber PSA or acrylic PSA?
Rubber PSA is useful for hand tearability and fast tack. Acrylic PSA is selected for heat resistance and aging resistance.
Can it be used for EV wire harness production?
Yes. Suitable grades support orange identification, abrasion protection, stable unwind, and cable jacket compatibility.
What should be tested before batch use?
Check thickness, peel adhesion, tensile strength, elongation, temperature grade, abrasion reference, odor, fogging, unwind force, flagging, and cable jacket compatibility.
