Metal Tapes, Braids and Shielding Sleeves

Scotch® 24

 A conductive tape made of tinned copper 0.12 mm thick conductors braided to a flat form. Highly conformable, with high tensile strength, conforms to all profiles. Tension thickens its open-weave knit construction. Total section 0.6 mm2. It can be used to wrap or also applied as a thin tube to short segments.

Usage:

  • braided concentric shielding, e.g., in HV splices or on shorter data cables
  • conductive connection
  • additional shielding of small cables and lead wires.

 

 

Scotch® 25

 A flat braid of tinned copper wires. Suitable for both indoor and outdoor application. Total section 16 mm2. Easily solderable. To connect with cable shielding, a lever spring is recommended. Corrosion and weather resistant.

Usage:

  • to interconnect a metal shielding or a steel jacket in HV splices
  • to lead out grounding of cable terminations of some cable types, e.g., with tape shielding
  • to provide a conductive and conformable connection of grounded parts with high diameter, e.g., equipment boxes and transport equipment.

 

Scotch® 25-S

The same as Scotch® 25, but 25 mm2 in section.

 

 

Stínící punčoška

A tinned copper braid. Can be shaped as a flat tape or as a tube with high diameter (up to about 150 mm). Section 25 mm2. Can provide shielding and conductive interconnection of metal shielding in splices, using one element without wrapping. It is recommended to use the shielding sleeve with a 3M™ lever spring. The minimum transition resistance of the bond is guaranteed regardless of the quality of the installation. This system, developed in 3M™ laboratories, has been tested for short-circuit 10 kA current transfer for a period of 7 s without damage.

Usage:

  • for shielding and also metal shielding or steel jacket intercornnection in HV splices
  • to lead out grounding of cable terminations of some cable types, e.g., with tape shielding
  • for additional shielding of short cable tracks
