ESD Kapton polyimide tape 19 mm x 33 m, tear strength 45 N/cm

Protecting whole board sections ahead of the solder wave calls for width and pull strength. This dissipative polyimide tape at 19 mm covers large areas and does not tear when long strips are removed, its tear strength is 45 N/cm.

Benefits

• 19 mm width for large-area solder masking, fewer strips per assembly
• adhesion of 3 N/cm on steel, holds on board surfaces and housing edges
• tear strength 45 N/cm at 60 % elongation at break, clean removal in one piece
• typical bleeder resistance 10^6 to 10^8 Ohm, dissipative rather than insulating
• film thickness 0.06 mm, short-term temperature resistance up to 300 °C

Applications

Large-area solder masking in wave soldering, protection of connector fields, displays and heat sinks during rework, fixing components and cables for thermal profiling and masking for painting and potting.

Compatibility and scope of delivery

One roll of 19 mm width and 33 m length on a core with 76 mm inner diameter, suited to standard bench dispensers. Further widths in the series run from 6 to 25 mm.

The dissipative resistance range is intended for workstations in an EPA according to IEC 61340-5-1.
