3M™ Paper Backed Electrical Filament Tape 1076

3M™ Paper Backed Electrical Filament Tape 1076 is made of an electrical-grade paper backing reinforced with scrim glass filaments and an oil-compatible acrylic pressure sensitive adhesive. Unlike conventional film backed tapes, this product paper backing construction allows for complete impregnation and saturation of the tape in adjacent layers of insulation. The unique coating on the back side of 3M™ Tape 1076 promotes exceptional bonding of the diamond paper insulation epoxy during the transformer baking process. The tape has an operating temperature of up to 105⁰C. The adhesive remains stable even after long exposure to transformer fluids, has a saturable backing for air entrapment resistance and the stiffness of the tape promotes superior handling, which enhances operator efficiency.
