Kapton Polyimide Tapes

rs mn EM Tec conductive copper SEM tapes

Overview

Rave Scientific offers Single sided Kapton tapes

The single sided Kapton tape consists of a Kapton polyimide film with a silicon adhesive. The tape is self wound without a liner. Advantages of the Kapton tape are:

Wide temperature range use
Heat resistant
Good adhesion properties on difficult surfaces
Low adhesive transfer
Leaves cleaner surfaces after removal
Low outgassing under vacuum

If used as temporary tape or transfer tape, only apply minimum pressure. The Kapton tape has low outgassing properties and is an ideal tape for high vacuum aplications. Excellent performance for electrical and thermal insulation with high dielectric strength. Although the use temperature range is specified as -75 to +260°C, Kapton has been successfully used in the temperature range of -196 to +400°C.
Applications are wide ranging for this tape:

Masking on printed circuit boards during soldering
Masking for vacuum deposition
Holding samples or part in high vacuum
Positioning tape for cryo applications
Electrical insulation on transformers, coil and electro motors.

Available in widths from 6 to 50mm with a length of 33m. Clean 76mm diameter plastic core.
