Product Description
3M™ Polyimide Film Tape 5413 with DuPont™ Kapton® polyimide film and silicone adhesive used for PCB solder
masking and other high temperature applications. This product is amber colored and 2.7 mil (69 microns) thick.
Features and Benefits
• The DuPont™ Kapton® polyimide film does not soften at elevated temperatures, thus the film provides an
excellent release surface at elevated temperatures
• Is dimensionally stable at high temperatures, which helps reduce rework, helping to enable high productivity
• Is flame retardant, chemical and radiation resistant which helps protect surfaces to help reduce replacement costs
• The silicone adhesive’s high temperature performance helps reduce adhesive transfer which helps to eliminate
cleaning, enabling high productivity
• Polyethylene tape core instead of cardboard
