Amber Polyimide Tape - 30mm x 33m Length | Vital Parts - ULT018
Our Amber Polyimide Tape, also known as Kapton Tape, is an ultra-high temperature masking solution engineered for the most demanding industrial applications. With exceptional thermal resistance up to 260°C continuous operation and short-term exposure capabilities up to 400°C, this professional-grade tape delivers reliable performance in extreme environments where conventional masking materials fail.
What are Amber Polyimide Tapes?
Amber Polyimide Tapes are high-performance masking and insulation tapes manufactured from polyimide film with a silicone adhesive backing. These tapes combine exceptional thermal stability with excellent electrical insulation properties, making them indispensable for electronics manufacturing, powder coating and industrial processes requiring heat protection. The distinctive amber colour provides excellent visibility for precise application, while the conformable nature allows the tape to follow complex contours and irregular surfaces without wrinkling or lifting.
