J.I.T. are very pleased to announce that we are now distributers for Taconic's Tacsil adhesive products.

The Tacsil products are a range of double sided silicone tapes which, thanks to their silicone compounds, are reusable in high temperature environments of up to 260°C. Tacsil tapes are specifically designed for use in the SMT (Surface Mount Technology) Process, temporarily fixing FPC (Flexible Printed Circuits) or tiny components to a carrier pallet.

As well as being used in the SMT Process, the tape can be used in several other application processes including:

• the assembly process
• the flip chip mounting process
• display panel process
• substrate manufacture process
• LED Packaging

Below is a diagram of the benefits of using Tascil silicone tape throughout the SMT process. 

Put simply, splicing involves joining two or more pieces of linear materials e.g. to splice paper, you stick the edge of one sheet to the edge of another.  Of course, in industry, it is more technical that that. Here at J.I.T. Industrial Products Ltd. we offer a wide range of splicing tapes such as single and double sided tapes to join papers, films, cards, foils, fabrics and textiles. If your manufacturing process needs to join the end of one roll to the next, chances are you are using splicing tape. Our splicing tapes are used in industries from specialist fabrics and textiles to label manufacturing, in applications where high temperatures can have an effect on the performance of the tape, and many other scenarios.

In modern day manufacturing processes,  you must use the correct splicing tape in order to combat temperature and chemical resistance. For example you may need to use high temperature splicing tape capable of withstanding up to 200°C. If you are not using the correct tape then you may experience problems down the line. In order to ensure you are using the correct tape, our specialists work alongside you to find the tape best suited to your applications.

Please do not hesitate to contact us to discuss your splicing options!
