Description
KPT-1 and KPT-2 Polyimide Tapes are high-performance Kapton™ alternatives designed for electrical insulation and high-temperature protection.
They are engineered to withstand demanding manufacturing processes such as wave soldering and hot air leveling.
Each tape is made from a durable polyimide film coated with a high-performance silicone adhesive.
This construction provides superior tear resistance, conformability, and long-term thermal endurance.
The gold/amber transparent film lets operators clearly observe the board during processing while protecting sensitive components.
These tapes also deliver excellent resistance to acids, oils, solvents, water immersion, and aging.
