Aluminum foil duct tape consists of a thin layer of aluminum foil coated with a pressure-sensitive adhesive, easily conforms to various duct shapes and sizes, which is 25 microns thick, offering a balance of strength and flexibility. The aluminum layer is highly resistant to heat, moisture, and certain chemicals, making it ideal for use in environments that involve temperature extremes and humidity. Adhesive provides strong adhesion to both fibrous and metallic ducts, engineered to stick well over a wide range of temperatures.
Aluminum foil duct tape is known for its durability and strength. It is not only resistant to heat and moisture but also to UV radiation, certain chemicals, and flames. This tape combines the durability and resistant properties of aluminum with the versatility of adhesive tape, making it particularly useful for sealing, repairing, and insulating.
Sealing HVAC Ductwork: The primary use of aluminum foil duct tape is to seal joints in HVAC ductwork to prevent air leaks. This helps improve the efficiency of heating and cooling systems by minimizing energy loss.
Thermal Insulation: It is used to wrap around pipes and ducts to help retain heat and prevent condensation.
Repairs: Due to its high heat tolerance and moisture resistance, it is often used to repair metal canisters, tubing, and containers that are exposed to harsh conditions.
Electromagnetic Shielding: Aluminum foil tape can also be used for electromagnetic shielding in electronics. The metallic nature of aluminum foil makes it ideal for blocking electromagnetic fields.
Crafting and Industrial Applications: In arts and crafts, as well as in industrial settings, aluminum foil tape is used for its reflective properties and its ability to form to shapes.
Strong adhesive ensures a secure seal to prevent air leakage.
Can withstand high temperatures and humidity conditions.
Easily conforms to various duct shapes and sizes.
Aluminum backing provides excellent resistant of humidity, UV degradation, chemicals and extreme cold and heat.
Service Temperature range from -30℃ to +150℃.
