3M 1218 electrical tape

The 3M 1218 electrical tape is characterized by several key features:

•  Material Composition: It has a polyimide film backing, which provides exceptional heat and solvent resistance. 

The adhesive used is a pressure-sensitive acrylic adhesive, known for its excellent adherence and durability.

•  Temperature Resistance: The tape is designed to withstand high temperatures, up to 356°F (180°C), 

making it suitable for use in high-temperature electrical applications.

•  Electrical Properties: It is rated for 600V and has a dielectric strength of 6000V, ensuring reliable electrical insulation. 

The tape also has a high insulation resistance of 1 x 10^6 megohms.

•  Physical Characteristics: The tape is flame-retardant and has a good elongation at break of 55 percent, 

which provides flexibility and resistance to tearing. It is available in amber color and is typically used for wrapping capacitors, coils, and harnesses.

•  Compliance and Standards: It is UL Listed and RoHS 2011/65/EU compliant, ensuring that it meets safety and environmental standards.

These features make the 3M 1218 tape a reliable choice for applications requiring high-temperature resistance and strong electrical insulation.
