EMI Shielding Tapes (Electro-Magnetic Interface) are designed for applications requiring reliable point-to-point contact, particularly EMI/RFI (Radio Frequency Interface) shielding, grounding and static charge draining.
There are a wide range of tapes for EMI shielding with both conductive and non conductive adhesives.
PTFE and Teflon Tapes
A range of polyester tapes with high temperature silicone adhesives are available for masking off the connectors prior to gold plating. High temperature masking tapes are used for roller tinning and wave soldering, the product choice is dependant on critical aspects of the curcuit board ie: temperature.
Protection of Boards During Plating
Boards need to be protected during plating from fumes and splashes. Low tack transparent polyester tape is ideal for this application.

Electrical: Electrical insulation of cables. Colour coding electrical cables.
Electrical appliance manufactures: Harnessing, waterproofing, insulating, abrasion protection and packaging.
PVC Insulation Tapes
PVC insulation tapes are flame retardant, self extinguishing and offer good conformability. This makes them ideal for cable and wire insulation. Heat shrink tubing is used for insulation and sealing of low voltage cables. Various grades are available for general purpose and more heavy duty applications.
Glass Cloth Tapes
Glass cloth tapes are used for high temperature insulation applications and provide a heat stable seal. These tapes have a thermosetting adhesive for applications up to and in escess of 180C.
Abrasion Resistant Tapes
Self adhesive polyurethene film tapes protect surfaces which are subject to high abrasion or corrosion.
These tapes are used to protect leading edges on aircraft from damage and wear during flight or on racing cars moving at high speeds.
