Since the Kapton® tape is electrically insulative and low outgassing, it is an ideal material as a harness wrap to protect electrical wires from abrasion and electrostatic discharge (ESD) events. One of the primary uses of polyimide tape is for wire harness applications. Polyimide tape often sees use in Ground Systems Engineering (GSE) applications like temporary / permanent tiedowns, blanket closeouts, FOD control, harness wrap, and thermal radiation sinks. This is China made polyamide high temperature masking tape for attaching temperature sensors to PCBs during reflow and for masking components and protect. Our polyimide tape is the go-to material in aerospace integration and test environments. Its material properties with respect to mechanical strength, vacuum compatibility, electrical isolation, optical clarity, and high emissivity make the polyimide tape ideal for a host of applications. The space flight proven tape is widely used in the aerospace industry due to its wide operation temperature range, superior radiation resistance, and electrical resistant properties.ĭunmore’s Kapton® tape is the standard for flight and ground applications in the aerospace industry. Our Kapton® tape consists of polyimide film with a space grade, non-silicone pressure sensitive adhesive. Allow the build plate to dry completely before use which will probably take a few hours.Since 1985 Dunmore Aerospace has been providing material solutions for the space industry. Flatten and remove air bubbles along with excess soapy water with a squeegee. The tape can be easily repositioned to the desired location because of the soapy water. Place the Kapton tape directly on to the soapy water mixture. Spray down a thing layer of soapy water on to the build plate. If you are using the precut sheets, then simply peel away the protective backing. Unroll and cut the desired size Kapton tape. Start with one edge first, and application is made easier if using a straight edge such as a ruler to adhere towards the other edge. Kapton tape can be applied via either the dry or wet methodĪpply the tape by rolling the tape on the build plate.

It can be used as a waterproof liner between two liquids or as a backing for epoxy or latex. Prints adheres well but come off cleanly Polymide tape is a chemical-resistant tape that is manufactured with a high temperature silicone adhesive. Kapton tape is used extensively in packaging applications.Adhesive (silicone) layer thickness - 1 mil.


Kapton tape is the practical choice for your 3D printer bed. Polyimide Tapes are made from polyimide film with silicon adhesive that is compatible with a wide temperature range from -269C (-452F) to as high as 400C (.
KAPTON TAPE FULL
The plastic filament will have full adhesion to the polyimide film at the designated temperature, but it also has self releasing characteristics as the bed cools. Therefore, many 3D printer users love applying this polyimide Kapton tape on 3D printers with heated build platforms. The beauty of Kapton tape is the ability of the polyimide film to withstand temperature. Get this superior quality Kapton tape for 3D printers! This tape works with many different 3D printing bed platforms.
