Heat Resistant Tape
When you’re dealing with temperatures exceeding 250-300°F, it’s crucial to select tapes tailored for high-temperature applications. Here’s an overview of various types of heat resistant tape to guide your material selection process:
Silicone Adhesives: Silicone adhesives are renowned for their heat resistance, withstanding temperatures from -60°F to 500°F (-51°C to 260°C) for short-term uses. Widely utilized in aerospace, automotive, construction, and electrical sectors, silicone adhesives offer reliability in extreme heat scenarios.
Kapton (Polyamide) Tape: Favored in aerospace and PCB applications, Kapton tapes boast exceptional heat resistance, enduring temperatures from -103°F to 500°F (-75°C to 260°C), with anecdotal evidence suggesting functionality even in extreme conditions ranging from -320°F to 752°F (-196°C to 400°C).
Foils: Various foil adhesive tapes, including aluminum, copper, and stainless steel, find utility in EMI and RFI shielding, HVAC sealing, and packaging. Their temperature performance typically ranges from -65°F to 600°F (-54°C to 316°C), contingent on the specific type of foil employed.
Glass Cloth: Utilized for sound insulation and material reinforcement, glass cloth tapes exhibit robust heat resistance, capable of withstanding temperatures exceeding 500°F (260°C), akin to Kapton and foils.
Polyester (PET) Film Tape: Polyester tapes, suitable for electronic joining and high-temperature masking in powder coating, endure environments from -94°F to 400°F (-70°C to 204°C), withstanding even higher temperatures during shorter bake cycles.
VHB Tapes: Primarily employed for secure long-term bonds, VHB (“Very High Bonding”) Tapes offers varying heat resistance capabilities. While some variants withstand up to 450°F, most fall within the range of -40°F to 200°F (-40°C to 93°C).
Acrylic Adhesives: High-strength and flexible, acrylic adhesive tapes serve diverse industries, including automotive and medical. While some acrylic tapes can reach temperatures around 400°F (204°C), the majority operate below this threshold, with lower limits averaging -20°F to -40°F (-28°C to -40°C), depending on the specific tape.
When selecting a heat resistant tape, consider the unique requirements of your project alongside the performance characteristics of each tape type to ensure optimal results.

Our aluminium foil thermal spray is meticulously engineered with highly adaptable backings, specifically designed to enhance abrasion resistance and facilitate seamless removal, leaving immaculate edges. Featuring advanced formulations, our Thermal Spray Tapes boast a high-temperature adhesive, ensuring robust adhesion throughout the application process while facilitating effortless adhesive removal, thereby minimizing the need for post-spray rework. It performs as a plasma or flame spray masking tape, allowing areas to be free of grit blasting and the plasma spray coating. Its high-temperature resistance makes it ideal for heat and reflectant tapes, and it is used in aerospace and automotive markets as a wire harness bundling tape in engine components. It is designed for extremely high demand thermal spray applications, such as HVOF and High Detonation Systems. It provides excellent abrasion and temperature resistance and conforms very well to a wide variety of surface configurations. The extremely aggressive adhesive system assures the tape stays in place throughout the entire coating process and will release cleanly after use, reducing the cleaning of the coated parts.
