3M Metallic Tape, Aluminium Foil Type, Acrylic Adhesive - 431 25MMX55M

This metallic tape from 3M helps your equipment stick it out in demanding conditions. It comes in handy for a broad range of tasks, from heat shielding to mechanically holding wires and cooling coils in electrical appliances. The acrylic liner has an adhesive strength of 4.5N/cm, ensuring superior sticking strength even in tough environments. As this tape has a high maximum operating temperature of +149°C, it's a reliable option for use when the heat is on.

• Generous 55m length for multiple taping jobs
• Durable aluminium foil backing resists flames, moisture and UV
• Suitable as a maskant when electroplating aluminium, as it won't contaminate the bath

Applications

• Heat reflection and dissipation
• Light enhancement
• Splicing thin gauge foils

The soft aluminium is thermally conducting 3M 431 Foil Tape dissipates the heat over the surface of the foil backing to reduce heat spots and protects the subject from the effects of high temperatures. The 431 tape is capable of withstanding temperatures of 149°C without losing any of its fundamental properties.

Is this tape conductive?

Yes, this tape conducts both heat and electricity, so you can use it to protect plastic surfaces from radiant heat or to create a conductive connection between two metals.

• 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

Benefits of choosing 3M Aluminium Foil Tape

Extreme Hot and cold temperature versatility. 3M foil tape works in temperatures to which other tapes would diminish. Performing in cold conditions allows this 3M tape to be a market leader, as other tapes see the adhesive harden and begin to lose sticking strength. On the contrary, extreme heat can melt adhesives of tapes, but not the 3M foil tape making it versatile for most indoor and outdoor applications.

Benefits of choosing 3M Aluminium Foil Tape

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.
