Looking for tape to use for electroplating masking? Try this lead foil tape from 3M. It's malleable, so you can shape it into detailed patterns to match the needs of your manufacturing process. For longevity in harsh industrial environments, it resists UV light, moisture and flames, as well as chemicals. The rubber adhesive grabs firmly to a surface for a long-lasting hold. There's no need to worry about sticky residue as this tape removes cleanly from most substrates.

• Lead foil backing can be burnished to provide a continued electrical path
• Suitable for use both indoors and outdoors
• Wide temperature use range between -54°C and +106°C for compatibility with demanding conditions
• Shelf-life of 18 months, so suitable for storage

• Chemical milling
• Paint stripping tasks
• Adding weight to equipment parts

Our 3M™ Lead Foil Tape 420 is an electrically and thermally conductive tape. This highly conformable tape resists flame, moisture, weather, UV degradation, chemicals and radiation.

Electrically and thermally conductive tape for the electroplating and anodising processes.

Yes, this tape is thermally conductive, so helps to reduce the build-up of hotspots.

• Conformable tape resists flame, moisture, weather, UV degradation, and many chemicals used in electroplating and anodizing processes
• The rubber-based adhesive bonds well a variety of surface, including most metals
• Performs over a wide variety of temperatures
• Liner allows tape to be die-cut into specific shapes for assembly and manufacturing processes
