BTW, a great majority of enclosures -for outdoor use- that the cable TV
companies use for line amplifiers and drop boxes are made of the same
material. They have o life expectancy of at least 20 years, even in
subtropical conditions.
I had a car made of it- here in 4Zulu land- and drove it for 22 years.

Guys, the adhesive is NOT an issue: after being over wound with the wire it
is irrelevant!
There are 2 kinds of tape : fiberglass, which is an organic material and
glass fiber which is not. Corvettes are made of the latter!
