Wire Harness Tape

Hey guys,

What is your favorite high quality electrical tape for use on the harness under the dash and in the engine bay. Looking for something that will hold up well to heat and not fall apart. The 3m stuff you can buy at the hardware store work ok until it gets hot. Ive heard of friction tape or tape with very little adhesive.

Any advice?

I've used this over the years. Just used a little of it on the power antennae harness. No adhesive....you tie off the ends, just like the factory did. With no adhesive, there's no sagging or moving when hot. Not cheap, but it's the real deal.

Re: Wire Harness Tape

Has anyone else used this stuff or have something they recommend? I'm pulling off the factory (LS1 body harness) stuff and it leaves a sticky residue. Regular 3M stuff gets gooey with heat.
