Another area where self-bonding rubber tape excels is in automotive applications. Mechanics and car enthusiasts alike have found this tape to be indispensable for bundling wires, securing hoses, and providing insulation to electrical systems in vehicles. Its resilient nature ensures that it can remain intact even under the high temperatures and vibrations often experienced in a car's engine compartment.
As the name implies, synthetic rubber is “formulated rubber” – think coming from the lab, not coming from the tree. Synthetic rubber can broken into three subgroups: Hot-melt, Solvent and Butyl rubber.

To prevent damage to the interior components, the Control Box should be resistant to extreme climates, weather changes, cleaning agents, and chemicals. You may choose aluminium, stainless steel, or plastic depending on your purpose. Enclosures will have an electrical safety grade defined by IP rating or NEMA classification that specifies if the enclosure is acceptable for hazardous situations or is dustproof or explosion-proof.
