Key Materials

DuPont™ Nomex®
DuPont™ Nomex® is a brand that has earned the trust of manufacturers around the world by delivering superior quality and proven reliability for a wide range of electrical insulation applications. For nearly 50 years, Nomex® has been the material of choice for electrical insulation, helping to extend the life of electrical equipment and prevent premature failures. By using Nomex® paper as electrical insulation, manufacturers of everything from transformers and generators to wind turbine systems and hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) have been able to help improve the integrity and performance of their own products.

Kapton Tape
DuPont™ Kapton® polyimide films maintain their chemical properties even under harsh condition including extreme temperature and vibration. These films set the industry standard for high performance, reliability and durability, with a unique combination of electrical, thermal, chemical and mechanical properties that withstand extreme temperature, vibration and other demanding environments.

3M® Glass Cloth
3M® Glass Cloth features pressure sensitive silicone adhesive backing with woven fiberglass for applications requiring strong bonding and high-temperature resistance. The high tensile strength makes this product ideal for permanent sealing of ducts and chambers, submerged arc welding and wire harnessing.

PTFE
3M™ PTFE Tapes are self-lubricating, chemical-resistant and temperature resistant up to 400℉ (204℃), for lasting performance on heat-sealing machines. Its anti-stick properties enable easy cleanup of hot plastic.

Copper Foil
C110 Copper Foil is frequently used for electrical applications including circuitry, transformers, batteries and other electronics. Its high electrical conductivity is virtually unmatched. C100 is weldable with a high corrosion resistance. All copper foils meet the following specifications: Copper 99.9%, Oxygen .04%

Fiberglass
Fiber reinforced glass for molding into complex shapes. Applications include: aircraft, boats, automobiles, bathtubs, swimming pools, hot tubs, septic tanks, water tanks, roofing, pipes, cladding, casts, surfboards, and external door skins.
