Description: Aluminum and copper foil tapes offer high conformability, conductivity, and reflectivity at elevated temperatures. Aluminum is available with a fiberglass laminate for applications requiring higher tear strengths. Service temperatures range from -100°F to +500°F (-73°C to +260°C). Applications include thermal spray, aircraft repainting, EMI/RFI shielding, and electroplating. This tape uses an acrylic adhesive system. Acrylic adhesves perform in continuous operating temperatures from -40°F to +375°F (-40°C to +188°C). Benefits include exceptional solvent resistance, excellent adhesion to metal, superior weathering and aging characteristics. Acrylics have an excellent shelf life, and when exposed to elevated temperatures, their ability to wet-out improves thus increasing both adhesion and tack properties. All data based on a 0.004 inch test sample.(Thickness given is for both backing and adhesive. Backing thickness is .002 inches.)
