Description
Kapton Film Tape
Indeed, Kapton film tape is a polyimide film tape used to insulate and protect high-temperature areas of a motor winding during rewinding.
Kapton Film Tape Details
- Width: 1″ (24mm)
- Supplied in a 33m roll
- Polyimide film backing
- P/N: KFT
Specifically, the polyimide backing keeps its dielectric strength and mechanical integrity at temperatures well beyond general-purpose insulation tapes.
Motor Rewinding Applications
Overall, Kapton film tape such as this suits a wide range of motor rewinding and repair applications, including:
- Electric motor rewinding and repair
- Stator and armature winding insulation systems
- Motor manufacturing and refurbishment
- Industrial and mining motor overhauls
- Pump and fan motor rebuilds
Because polyimide film tolerates sustained high operating temperatures, however, installers typically reserve it for the hottest points on a winding rather than general-purpose wrapping. Therefore, one roll usually covers the specific high-temperature spots on several rewinds.
