Aluminum Foil Tape Description

 

Engineered for professional sealing and insulation tasks, the AFR2560 Aluminum Adhesive Tape offers a composite structure built for maximum effectiveness:

Foil Backing: The 25-micron thick aluminum foil provides inherent properties of heat and light reflection, corrosion resistance, and acts as a strong barrier against moisture and gases. Its thinness ensures excellent conformability to complex shapes.

Adhesive: A high-quality, rubber-based adhesive ensures superior adhesion and holding power (super strong adhesion and holding power) with a strong initial tack, performing effectively across its entire service temperature range.

The tape’s silicone-coated release liner ensures easy handling and clean application, even during complex installations.

Tape Applications:

The versatility and high thermal performance of this Aluminum Adhesive Tape make it indispensable for demanding professional applications:

  • HVAC Systems: Essential for sealing ductwork (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) to prevent air leaks, ensuring system efficiency and compliance.
  • Insulation Sealing: Used to seal and repair insulation materials, sealing joints and seams to enhance thermal performance and provide a continuous moisture barrier.
  • Construction: Applied in building envelopes for waterproofing, vapor barriers, and general patching of holes and sealing gaps.
  • General Repairs & Maintenance: Patching, wrapping, and sealing across various industrial and maintenance tasks where heat reflection and a durable seal are necessary.

Tape Features:

  • Excellent Adhesion: Rubber-based adhesive provides strong initial tack and superior bonding to both smooth and rough surfaces.
  • Heat and Flame Resistance: The aluminum backing reflects radiant heat, offering protection against high temperatures and flame exposure.
  • Moisture & Vapor Barrier: Prevents water and vapor penetration, ensuring long-lasting performance in humid or variable environments.
  • Flexible and Easy to Apply: The thin 25µm foil allows smooth application on irregular or curved surfaces without tearing.
  • Durable Construction: Resistant to aging, chemicals, and weathering, maintaining integrity over time.

FAQ

Q1: What makes aluminum adhesive tape different from standard foil tape?
A: It uses a rubber-based adhesive, offering stronger initial tack and better performance on irregular surfaces.

Q2: Can this tape be used outdoors?
A: Yes, it performs well in outdoor environments due to its moisture resistance and temperature durability.

Q3: Is it safe for electrical applications?
A: While it has excellent heat resistance, it’s not designed as an electrical insulation tape.
