Shrink Tape Special is a professional shrink tape for composite production

Shrink Tape Special is a professionalseparating shrink tape, designed for the production of advanced composite elements

made from carbon, glass, and aramid fibers. It is primarily used in theprepreg, where during the curing process it provides appropriate compression of the laminate and achieves a high-quality surface of the finished part.

Thanks to controlled thermal shrinkage, the tape effectively densifies the layers of material, improves the fiber-to-resin ratio, and increases the mechanical properties of composite products.

Applications

Shrink Tape Special is used in:

  • the production of composite pipes and profiles,

  • the production of prepreg components,

  • the production of carbon fiber components,

  • the production of glass fiber components,

  • the production of aramid fiber components (Kevlar),

  • the aerospace industry,

  • the automotive industry,

  • the production of fishing rods, masts, frames, and structural elements.

Key Advantages

  • provides laminate compression during curing,

  • increases the density of prepreg layers,

  • improves the quality and strength of the finished composite,

  • allows for a very smooth and glossy surface,

  • easily separates from the finished part,

  • does not require the use of silicone coatings or release agents,

  • leaves no contaminants on the composite surface.

Product Characteristics

  • made from specially modified polypropylene,

  • stable and controlled shrinkage during polymerization,

  • high mechanical resistance,

  • very good fit to conical and irregular surfaces,

  • one side has natural anti-adhesive properties.

Technical Specification

Parameter Value
Product Type Separating shrink tape
Material Special polypropylene (PP)
Thickness 28 μm
Maximum operating temperature 140–150°C
Properties Anti-adhesive, shrinkable

Effect of Use

During the curing process, the tape exerts uniform pressure on the laminate, improving its structure and reducing excess resin. It allows for a smooth surface with high aesthetics, and due to its thin thickness of 28 μm, wrapping marks are virtually invisible.

Why Choose Shrink Tape Special?

The tape was developed for professional composite manufacturers requiring the highest quality finishes and maximum mechanical properties. Its use increases the repeatability of the production process, improves laminate quality, and reduces the need for additional processing after polymerization.

Shrink Tape Special is a proven solution for prepreg technology and the production of top-class composites.
