Conductive textile & tapes

Conductive textile is made of a polyester, metallized with Cu/Ni, extremely strong and flexible. It has conductivity in all directions, i.e. along the axes X, Y and Z. Conductive textile can be supplied as a cloth or as pressure-sensitive adhesive (PAS) tape which is easy to apply to plastic housings in order to cover complex forms and shapes. Conductive textile has low contact resistance and the tape version has superior adhesive force. The product shields electromagnetic interference (EMI) effectively. Conductive textile is also used to make Shielded tents, Protective clothing, bags, etc. 

Laminates of metal foils with flame-retardant Nomex or Valox are also available; see our Mu-copper tape or Amucor foil and tape.

Our engineers can help you develop the right design to create overlaps, holes or connectors, cables and spuds.
