When I worked at a steel foundry as maintenance we used entire boxes of it when servicing the arms that held the carbon electrodes (6" dia, they were pretty small, but the furnaces were only 7 tons) because it was the only thing that held up to the heat and didn't let the 220V at 9,000 plus amps (guessing) leak through. It might be a source, or you can check with local electronic suppliers to see if they have it or can get it. 3M 33+ tape is popular with better electricians and electronic techs, so any one you know or could find will be able to help you find a source for other 3M products.
