SealTekPro KD318 transparent Pressure Sensitive Adhesive (PSA) cover tape is engineered specifically for the precision packaging of FPC, IPX, IPEX, and HSC series connectors, SMD components, discrete microelectronics, and metal shrapnel packages. Featuring superior optical transparency combined with a specialized dual-resistivity design—low surface resistivity of 10⁵–10⁹ Ω/cm² on the adhesive side and high surface resistivity of 10¹² Ω/cm² on the film side—KD318 fulfills demanding packaging requirements for Automated Optical Inspection (AOI), visual defect checking, and differentiated electrostatic shielding. It bonds instantly at room temperature under roller or pressure-bar sealing without thermal energy, delivering reliable component retention, stable fluctuation-free peel force, and clean residue-free removal on high-speed SMT packaging lines.
Product Highlights
- Differentiated Dual-Resistivity Protection: Combines a low surface resistivity (10⁵–10⁹ Ω/cm²) adhesive side for reliable electrostatic discharge (ESD) defense with a high resistance (10¹² Ω/cm²) backing layer, effectively shielding precision micro-connectors, metal shrapnel, and ESD-sensitive components.
- High Optical Clarity for AOI Vision: High-transparency PET film facilitates visual inspection and Automated Optical Inspection (AOI), allowing precise verification of component presence, marking, and orientation without tape removal.
- Room-Temperature Cold Bonding: Pressure-sensitive adhesive bonds instantly under mechanical pressure at room temperature, eliminating machine pre-heating/cooling downtime and safeguarding heat-sensitive components from thermal stress.
- Compliant with EIA-481-F Standards: Fully compliant with EIA-481-F and IEC 60286-3 specifications, ensuring smooth, fluctuation-free peel force (20–130 gf) and zero tape tearing or pocket vibration on high-speed pick-and-place lines.
- Residue-Free & Halogen-Free: Clean peel-off leaves zero adhesive transfer on carrier rails or electrical contact points, fully compliant with RoHS 2.0, REACH, and halogen-free green supply chain standards.
