INDUSTRIAL TAPES & FILMS

Polyimide Tape

Adhesive grades, specialty constructions, and converting options for demanding manufacturing processes.

Polyimide adhesive tapes combine a durable polyimide film backing with adhesive systems selected for heat resistance, electrical insulation, and manufacturing processes. CGS supplies standard, high-temperature, and specialty constructions, with converting options for rolls and shaped parts. Choose the adhesive grade for your temperature, electrical, substrate, and processing requirements, then review the individual product data before final selection.

How to select a polyimide tape

Start with the process, then select the adhesive and film construction. CGS can help compare available grades when these details are known.

01

Heat exposure

Share the operating temperature, peak temperature, exposure duration, and whether the tape remains in place after processing.

02

Adhesive and substrate

Identify the surface, bonding needs, removal method, and whether silicone or acrylic adhesive is preferred or restricted.

03

Electrical and physical needs

Specify dielectric or ESD requirements, film and total thickness, color, and any applicable test standard.

04

Finished format

Provide roll width and length, liner, sheet or die-cut dimensions, tolerances, and expected quantity.

Where polyimide tape is used

Match the grade to the operating conditions, substrate, removal requirements, and electrical properties of the application.

Electronics manufacturing

Masking and protection during assembly processes where thermal exposure and removal matter.

Electrical insulation

Film-backed insulation for coils, wires, motors, and other electrical components.

High-temperature masking

Protection of selected surfaces through heat-intensive finishing and coating processes.

Formats and converting support

CGS can discuss slit rolls, sheets, die-cut parts, liner options, and other converted formats for a defined application. Available constructions, dimensions, and tolerances depend on the grade and process.

Share the grade or target properties, finished size, and order volume with your inquiry. See our converting capabilities for slitting, die cutting, laminating, sheeting, and laser cutting.

Technical information for qualification

Review the Polyimide Tape specifications for listed part numbers, backing and total thickness, adhesion, dielectric strength, and operating temperature. For documentation tied to your chosen grade, contact CGS with the part number and application. You can also review our quality and certification information.

MATERIAL GUIDANCE

Frequently asked questions

Is polyimide tape heat resistant?

Standard silicone polyimide tape is rated up to 260°C. Our specified high-temperature silicone (HT) grade is rated up to 300°C. Confirm the exact grade, duration, and process conditions.

Polyimide tape can be used for powder-coating masking when the selected adhesive grade and removal conditions suit the process. Review the cure temperature and dwell time.

Standard polyimide film and tape constructions are electrical insulators. ESD and conductive constructions have different electrical properties, so consult the specific product data.

Removal depends on the adhesive, substrate, dwell time, and heat exposure. Test the selected grade on the actual surface and process before production.

Kapton® is a brand name for polyimide film. Polyimide tape is a broader material category; the film and adhesive grade determine the tape's properties.
