3M Conductive Metallic Tape, 12mm Width, 55m Roll Length - 431 12MMX55M


Use this general-purpose metallic tape from 3M for patching, sealing and heat conduction in industrial applications. It's made of aluminium, so has exceptional thermal resistance for high-temperature conduction. This material also has an impressive strength to weight ratio, meaning the tape is durable but won't put a strain on the surface it's holding. It comes in a roll length of 55m, so you'll have plenty on hand for various projects. You'll find tape like this commonly used for heat shielding as well as in light enhancement for photographers.

Features and Benefits


• Ultraviolet (UV) resistance to withstand deterioration from sunlight
• Wide operating temperature range of -53°C to +148°C for use in harsh environments
• Flame-retardant properties for use in volatile areas
• Adhesion strength of 4.5N/cm (Newton-centimetres) for secure bonding on surfaces
• Low moisture vapour transmission rate for proper sealing and patching

Applications


• Mobile phones and laptops
• Construction sites
• Heavy equipment sealing

3M™ Aluminium Foil Tape 431 is designed for numerous applications across a broad range of industries for use in harsh environments, both indoor and outdoor. It's ideal for heat shielding, heat reflecting, light enhancement, seaming and sealing.

What's the shelf life of this metallic tape?


Designed for heat shielding, heat reflecting, light enhancement, seaming and sealing. Both indoor and outdoor.

For best results, you should use this tape within 24 months from its date of manufacture. After two years, it will become less effective.

• Conformable tape resists flames, moisture, weather, UV degradation, and many chemicals
• Thermally conductive tape reflects and dissipates radiant heat to protect plastic surfaces
• Light reflective tape enhances lighting efficiency
• Robust acrylic adhesive and foil backing provide long service life both indoors and out

An Acrylic Adhesive backing. This 3M Aluminium foil tape is coated in a superior acrylic adhesive, which works well in extreme cold and heat conditions. This matters when comparing to most duct tapes that are made with a rubber adhesive. This is then known to delaminate from its backing in these extreme conditions. Other adhesives can offer greater resistance but will lack mechanical strength, poor ageing resistance and UV light.

Longevity of foil tape. Within the construction industry, the use of pressure sensitive tapes is often used in hard to reach areas. This means they can't be easily replaced or repaired. The acrylic adhesive on the 3M aluminium foil tape offers better cohesion, adhesion and thermal properties.
