Aluminium Foil Hot Melt Tape
Diamond Aluminum Foil Tape consists of an aluminum foil backing, combined with a high performance adhesive and protected by an easy release silicone paper liner.Diamond Aluminum Foil Tape is available in three types: Hot Melt-based, Solvent-based and FR Grade.
- Aluminum foil backing gives excellent reflection of both heat and light.
- The aggressive adhesive gives a very high initial tack and a permanent bonding for insulation applications.
- Suitable for masking in electroplating of aluminum due to its non-contamination properties.
- For FR Grade Aluminum Foil Tape: It consists of FR Grade Class 0 backing + Flame Retardant Solvent Acrylic Adhesive which provides a wide application temperature range.
- Used for joining and sealing Foil-Scrim-Kraft facing laminated fiber glass blanket in the HVAC Industry.
- For laminating parts of an air conditioning ducting system.
- For roofing applications like flashing, joints and insulations.
- Used for sealing and joining ducts which provides an excellent vapor barrier in refrigeration applications.
- For general purpose holding, patching, sealing for indoor applications.
