Silicone Tape

October 1, 2010

Simrit (Plymouth, MI) has introduced self-fusing silicone sinusoidal tape that incorporates fiberglass strands into the tape to control the amount of stretch for consistent thickness and dielectrics, while providing tear and abrasion resistance. Compliant to numerous aerospace applications, common uses include supporting wire harness wrapping, wire bundling, and supporting and sealing hot and cold air ducting. The silicone only bonds to itself without an adhesive. Once contact is made, fusion begins in seconds, with complete cohesion within 24 hours at room temperature. The fused tape then becomes an impermeable barrier against contaminating fluid and environment ingress.

The tape is available in homogeneous rectangular, triangular guideline, and non-stretch formats. It can be an insulating material for applications requiring additional protection from ultraviolet light, ozone, fungus, and salt water; chaffing; high and low temperatures; and flame and fire.
