3M™ Foil Tapes

Foil tapes are explicitly engineered metal-foil backing adhesive tapes designed for sealing, grounding, shielding, and resistance applications. These tapes feature unique characteristics with considerable significance in metal finishing, automotive, aerospace, and appliances. Most foil tapes are considered ideal for electric and thermal conductive shielding and grouping to guarantee maximum adhesion.

Foil tape is usually made with aluminium, but some foil tapes use lead or copper backings instead. Some foil tape varieties also contain glass, tin plating, or steel. The metal in foil tape gives it extra durability compared to plastic-based tapes and they are designed to be able to withstand high temperatures. Since all the metals used in foil tape are relatively soft, the tape is highly malleable.
