Flashbreaker® Tapes are high temperature / high tensile strength polyester films coated with a pressure sensitive silicone adhesive.
Flashbreaker® pressure sensitive tapes are used for multi-purpose functions in metal bond and composites, such as holding down vacuum bagging materials, TC wires, masking-off, chem.-milling protection or in riveting shops (Flashbreaker® 1). The thicker versions (Flashbreaker® 2 and 5) are used for adhesive flash clean-up over or next to bondlines or anywhere extra strength is needed. They offer further protection in chem-milling or acid bath etching. Flashbreaker® tapes remove easily after the cure. They can also be used to aid in potting inserts, drilling through the Flashbreaker® 5.
