3M Scotch 35 Blue Polyvinyl Chloride Electrical Insulation Tape, 19mm x 20m

3M™ Polyimide Film Tape 5419 is a translucent polyimide film tape with a silicone adhesive. This tape is 2.7 mil thick and can be used for PCB solder masking and other high-temperature applications, within a range of -73°C to 260°C.

Conventional polyimide electrical tapes can typically generate over 10,000 volts during use which can damage board mounted electronic components. 3M tape 5419 overcomes this problem without any of the typical drawbacks of conventional "anti-static" or "static-free" tapes (e.g. variable adhesion and opaqueness.)

• The polyimide film does not soften at elevated temperatures, thus the film provides an excellent release surface at elevated temperatures
• No rework required, enabling high productivity
• Protects surfaces helping reduce replacement parts
• RoHS compliant
• The electrical tape has extremely low electrostatic discharge properties

As the tape generates a low static charge, it is a suitable option for some ESD controlled environments such as clean rooms. As it generates smaller levels of electrostatic discharge when removed, it can be used on and around sensitive equipment and components with minimized risk of ESD damage. As such, it can be used as a mask for printed circuit boards during wave solder or solder dip processes. A reliable transparent adhesive tape, it can also be used in office and warehouse environments for general-purpose applications such as;

• Manufacturing
• packaging
• Stock labels
• Removing contaminants

ESD safe tape is primarily used as a safety device, so that you can reduce the risk of contamination of your products. Where equipment contains a semiconductor, such as a memory chip, ESD control is needed so that it is not damaged, and ESD safe tape provides one way of managing the risk. It is often used in addition to storing the equipment in a cleanroom.

A range of tapes for electrical installation and repair work; soldered joints and seams; insulation of soldered joints, terminals, cable sockets and conduction rails.

3M are a trusted name in tapes and adhesives. With a huge range of versatile and specialist tapes, 3M support dozens of industries and applications, from heavy-duty construction to DIY around the home. Whatever your needs, 3M supplies an adhesive tape that won't let you down.

RoHS Compliant

Looking for a safe way to mask sensitive equipment? Pick this electrical tape from 3M to prepare components such as PCBs for wave or dip soldering. The polyimide film generates almost no static discharge when you unwind or remove it, so there's no risk of damage to electronics. A 60% elongation at break gives you plenty of leeway to stretch it without snapping.

• Delivers reliable performance in a wide temperature range between -73°C and +260°C
• Flame-retardant material to boost electrical safety and prevent the spread of fire
• Yellow colour is easy to spot in busy systems

• Clean rooms
• IT installations
• Manufacturing equipment
• Warehouse labelling

It's 33m long, so there's enough for lots of projects.

It's only 0.07mm thick, so winding long lengths of it around a cable adds minimal bulk.
