The Mars 93506 insulation tape is a closed-cell foam product designed for thermal protection on hot or cold piping systems. Manufactured with a self-adhering acrylic adhesive, this tape provides supplemental insulation to prevent heat loss and minimize condensation in HVAC and refrigeration piping.
It is suitable for both new installations and retrofit applications and can be applied directly over existing insulation or onto bare tubing. Its flexible composition allows for conformance to curved or irregular surfaces.
✔ Insulating suction lines in refrigeration and split system HVAC installations
✔ Wrapping piping components, valves, and fittings prone to sweating
✔ Supplementing existing insulation in confined or irregular geometries
✔ Ideal for reducing surface temperature differential to prevent moisture buildup
Installation Guidance
Apply to clean, dry surfaces only
Overlap each wrap slightly to maintain continuity of insulation
Firm pressure ensures full adhesive contact; no mechanical fasteners required
Do not use on surfaces exceeding 200°F
Performance Considerations
Closed-cell structure limits vapor transmission and supports thermal performance
Adhesive backing simplifies installation without the need for secondary bonding agents
Can serve as a short-term repair option on compromised foam insulation jackets
The Mars 93506 foam insulation tape provides contractors with a reliable and easy-to-apply solution for reducing thermal losses and preventing condensation-related issues in piping systems. Its flexible, conformable form and durable adhesive backing make it suitable for a wide range of HVAC and plumbing applications.
