1182 Tape Copper Foil Conductive Adhesive on Both Sides Data Sheet Product Description Applications 3M 1182 Tape consists of a 1-ounce deadsoft copper foil backing that is coated on both sides with a unique electrically conductive pressuresensitive acrylic adhesive. 3M 1182 is typically used to bond two surfaces together, both electrically and physically. An example would be adhering a conductive gasket to a conductive surface as part of the EMI shielding solution for an electronic enclosure. * Deadsoft 1-ounce copper foil backing * Conductive acrylic adhesive on both sides * Supplied with removable liner on both sides for easy handling and diecutting Conductivity Since 3M 1182 double-sided copper tape would typically be used as an electrical path between two surfaces, its most important feature is its conductivity. Highly conductive particles in the acrylic adhesive provide a multitude of electrical paths between the application substrate and the surface of the copper foil on each side. The resistance of the conductive path through the adhesive (measured over a 1-in2 area) typically measures only a few milliohms. Like all 3M shielding tapes, 3M 1182 is available in standard and custom widths and lengths. Standard length is 18 yards. * Widths from 1/4" to 23" * Longer lengths up to several times normal length, dependent upon width. Check with Customer Service.
