When it comes to heat-resistant masking and insulation, many manufacturers rely on PET High Temperature Tape for its excellent balance of durability, affordability, and performance. From PCB soldering to powder coating, PET tape has become a versatile solution across industries.
So, what exactly makes PET tape stand out?
💡 What Is PET High Temperature Tape?
PET (Polyester) High Temperature Tape is made from polyester film coated with silicone or acrylic adhesive, designed to withstand elevated temperatures while maintaining strong adhesion and clean removability.
🔧 Key Features
| Feature | Description |
|---|
| 🔥 Heat Resistance | Can tolerate 180–220°C depending on adhesive type |
| 🧲 Strong Adhesion | Sticks well to metal, plastic, glass, and circuit boards |
| 🚫 No Residue | Leaves surfaces clean after removal—even after heat exposure |
| ✂️ Easy to Die-Cut | Suitable for custom shapes and automation |
| ⚡ Electrical Insulation | Often used in transformer and battery pack wrapping |
| 🌍 RoHS/REACH Compliant | Environmentally safe and export-friendly |
🏭 Common Applications of PET High Temp Tape
1. PCB Solder Masking
Protects gold fingers and sensitive areas during wave or reflow soldering.
2. Powder Coating & Painting
Shields metal parts from overspray or heat damage.
3. Battery Insulation
Wraps lithium-ion battery cells to isolate heat and current.
4. Electrical Motor/Transformer Winding
Offers thermal insulation and anti-corrosion support.
5. 3D Printing Beds
Used as a printing surface for better adhesion and durability.
