The Unmatched Protection of Nomex® Tapes

Nomex^® tapes are highly specialized materials widely used across industries that require superior insulation and heat resistance. Made from aramid fibers, Nomex^® is known for its exceptional thermal, mechanical, and chemical properties, making Nomex tapes ideal for a range of applications. Let us explore some primary uses and unique properties

Uses of Nomex^® Tapes

Electrical Insulation
Nomex^® tapes serve as an essential insulation material in various electrical applications. They are often used to insulate battery electrodes, transformer conductors, and motor coils, ensuring efficient operation and preventing short circuits or damage from heat.

Wrapping Conductors
Nomex^® tapes are commonly used to wrap conductors, particularly in power generation and large machinery like lifting magnets and traction motors. This insulation helps to maintain safety and operational efficiency while also improving the longevity of electrical components.

Release Film
Another critical application of Nomex^® tapes is as a release film during the resin consolidation process in armature coils. They provide a protective layer that prevents unwanted bonding or sticking, ensuring smooth and easy part separation.

Key Properties of Nomex^® Tapes

Heat Resistance
Nomex tapes are highly heat-resistant, capable of withstanding extreme temperatures without degradation. This makes them perfect for use in environments where temperature control is essential for the safe operation of electrical equipment.

Durability and Strength
Nomex^® tapes are strong and highly resistant to wear and abrasion. These qualities make them a dependable choice for long-lasting insulation that can endure the physical demands of industrial environments.

Chemical Resistance
Another significant advantage of Nomex^® tapes is their resistance to a broad range of chemicals. This property ensures that the material remains effective in harsh industrial environments where exposure to various substances is common.

Low Thermal Shrinkage
Nomex^® tapes have low thermal shrinkage, ensuring that they maintain their integrity and insulating properties even when exposed to fluctuating temperatures. This characteristic enhances the reliability of electrical systems using Nomex^® tape.

DuPont™ Nomex® Tapes are available with Hatim Dielectrics slitted in widths from 8mm and above wound on standard 55mm / 75mm ID in continuous lengths to facilitate machine taping.

Hatim Dielectrics also supply Nomex^® tapes cut to size pieces, available in kit form as per specific requirements.
