Description

Overview
No.188UL is a glass cloth–backed adhesive tape coated with a pressure-sensitive silicone adhesive. Designed for Class H heat resistance, it provides stable electrical performance and mechanical strength for electrical insulation, masking and coil bundling in high-temperature environments.

Features
  • High mechanical strength — approximately three times that of cotton or acetate cloth.
  • Maintains stable electrical properties after prolonged exposure to 180°C.
  • UL510A FR certified.
  • Excellent dimensional stability vs. many plastics; less affected by heat and humidity.

Structure
Glass cloth backing coated with pressure-sensitive silicone adhesive.
