3M 1245 Conductive Metallic Tape, 25mm x 16m

This dead-soft copper tape from 3M is a dependable solution for your electromagnetic or radio-electrical shielding needs. Its embossed pattern cuts through the adhesive in order to establish reliable metal-to-metal contact between the copper backing and the substrate. This makes it suitable for applications where excellent conductivity between the substrate and the backing is essential. The tape is supplied on a removable liner to help you handle and die-cut it with ease.

Embossed copper foil is a way to make metal-to-metal contact through the adhesive on a tape, providing an electrical connection with a longer life than one that uses a conductive adhesive.

Electromagnetic shielding is the use of conductive materials to create an enclosure that excludes electromagnetic fields from outside. The electric field applied to the conductor displaces the charge inside that conductor, which cancels the field inside the enclosure.
