Aluminum adhesive tapes

Aluminum adhesive tapes are important components in the thermal and acoustic insulation of buildings and in industrial applications. Their significance lies in several factors:

1. Thermal Reflection: The layers of aluminum on adhesive tapes have the ability to reflect heat. This makes them particularly useful in thermal insulation as they help retain heat in heated environments or repel heat in cooled environments. In extreme climates, this property helps reduce energy costs while maintaining a comfortable indoor temperature.
2. Moisture Barrier: The layers of aluminum on adhesive tapes provide an effective barrier against moisture. This is crucial in insulation as moisture can cause structural damage, promote mold formation, and reduce insulation efficiency. Aluminum adhesive tapes help keep moisture out of walls and ceilings.
3. Sound Insulation: Although primarily used for thermal insulation, aluminum adhesive tapes can also improve sound insulation. Aluminum has sound-reflecting properties that help reduce sound transmission through walls and surfaces.
4. Versatility: Aluminum adhesive tapes are versatile and can be used in a variety of applications. They are suitable for insulating pipes, air ducts, expansion joints, roofs, walls, and floors. Their ability to adhere securely to various surfaces makes them valuable in many situations.
5. Ease of Installation: The application of aluminum tapes is usually straightforward and requires few specialized tools. This simplifies installation, reduces labor times, and associated costs.
6. Durability: The aluminum layers give adhesive tapes greater mechanical strength and durability. They can withstand mechanical stresses, wear, and weather conditions without degrading easily.
7. Regulatory Compliance: In industrial and construction sectors, the use of insulation materials that comply with regulations is often mandatory. Aluminum adhesive tapes can conform to various regulations and standards, ensuring that buildings and industrial facilities comply with local and national regulations.

Aluminum Adhesive Tapes

TTM’s aluminum adhesive tapes are composed of pure aluminum foil, a release film made of polyethylene or release paper, and synthetic rubber as adhesive.

TTM’s SE series aluminum adhesive tapes are used in the industry for sealing joints with aluminum-coated insulation systems and are also employed in joining ventilation pipes and air conditioning ducts.

TTM’s aluminum adhesive tapes provide excellent adhesive power, resistance to aging, and moisture resistance. They are available in various widths and lengths, depending on requirements.
