We focus on precision-calendered silicone rubber, coated fabric, and specialty extruded silicone rubber tapes.
Arlon and MOX-TapeR :
silicone tapes are produced from specially formulated silicone rubber.
They bond irreversibly to provide an insulative barrier that is resistant to moisture,oxygen,ozone and corona over a wide temperature range (-65°F up to +500°F). Our products provide superior electrical insulation with a dielectric strength of 300 VPM minimum at 356°F/180°C
