Aerovac Sealant Tapes
Specially formulated bagging tapes for a range of temperatures
Aerovac offers a comprehensive range of sealant tapes that passed the test in many different and challenging manufacturing environments. Aerovac sealant tapes have been specially formulated to suit a range of cure temperatures, from ambient cures to high temperature thermoplastic cures of 400°F to meet your requirements. Various weights are available.
Aerovac Sealant Tapes are available through Composites One in North America or through Aerovac’s Distribution Network globally.
Sealant tapes are used in the composite manufacturing process during vacuum bagging applications. These help create an airtight seal on the bag to ensure the best possible results from the curing procedure. Some of the most common types include tacky tape, butyl tape, and chromate tape. Aerovac has a wide range of options for various uses. To learn more, see the chart below. If you want to place your order or get tech support, reach out to our composite specialists today.
