Double-Sided Thermal Adhesive Tape - Keratherm

Keratherm® KL 90 and KL 91 are thermal conducting, electrical isolating double sided adhesive films. They have an excellent, permanent adhesive strength with high thermal conductivities and at the same time very good insulation characteristics.Low thermal contact resistances can be achieved with a very reliable adhesive strength on different surfaces. There are no mechanical fixation with clips, screws or rivets needed. Due to the soft surface finish tolerances can be compensated very good. Light weight, easy handling and high elasticity are further advantages.

Possible Thickness: 0.30mm
