Just a generic comment – if you do not require the higher thermal resistance of the silicone adhesive, then you may not require the higher thermal resistance of the polyimide (Kapton) film either. Both the silicone adhesive and the polyimide film are more expensive options for a masking tape, but the combination works great for temporary solder and other high temperature process masking, or high temperature insulation. A polyester film masking tape with a non-silicone adhesive may work for what you want to do, at less cost, if the process temperature is more benign.

    Good morning all:



          We are looking to move away from silicone based adhesives with our Kapton tape to a non-silicone based version. It appears as though 3M has a 7419 Series that may be a good option. I'm looking for input from those of you who have switched and would like some recommendation on what has worked well for you. Off-line responses welcome. Thanks.



    Regards,

    Steve Vargas
