Features
Key Technical Specifications
- Backing Material: Polyimide (Kapton-equivalent)
- Thickness: 30μm
- Adhesive Type: Silicone (Pressure Sensitive)
- Color: Transparent Amber
- Temperature Range: Rated for continuous use up to 260°C (500°F) for short durations.
- Dielectric Strength: High electrical insulation properties inherent to the polyimide base.
Performance Features
- High Thermal Stability: Maintains physical properties and prevents shrinkage or curling during high-heat processes like powder coating or wave soldering.
- Chemical Resistance: The polyimide base provides excellent resistance to solvents, oils, and acids common in industrial manufacturing.
- Clean Removal: The silicone adhesive is formulated to leave zero residue on metal, glass, or plastic surfaces, even after prolonged exposure to heat.
- Thin Profile: The 30μm base allows for sharp, precise masking lines and conformability around irregular surfaces and contours.
Application
Primary Applications
- Electronics Manufacturing: Masking gold fingers and sensitive components during wave soldering or SMT processes.
- Powder Coating: Protecting critical areas (threads, electrical contact points) during high-temperature curing cycles.
- Aerospace & Automotive: Thermal insulation and masking for parts subjected to extreme heat environments.
- Electrical Insulation: Wrapping coils, transformers, and capacitors where heat and dielectric strength are required.
