DESCRIPTION:
Kapton Tape is made from DuPont Kapton™ HN general purpose film. It has been used in applications at temperatures as low as -269°C (-452°F) and as high as 400°C (752°F). Kapton® HN is the recommended choice for applications that require an all-polyimide film with an excellent balance of properties over a wide range of temperatures.
• Thin
and conformable enabling masking of uneven
surfaces
• Wide operating temperature range up to 500° F
• Removes cleanly without adhesive residue after exposure to heat
• High
performance silicone adhesive
• High
strength backing provides superior
resistance to puncture and tear
• Resistance to chemical attack
APPLICATIONS:
• High
temperature masking
• Protection of circuit board gold finger contacts during wave solder
• Insulation on Transformers, Motors and Coils
• Fiber Optics Cables
• Solar Panels
