Today advanced technology makes Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) solutions especially important for meeting electromagnetic interference and radio frequency interference (RFI). For more than 40 years 3M has been one of the foremost sources of effective electromagnetic compatibility solutions. Many of the world’s leading electronic and electrical manufacturers look to 3M for its exceptional technical and manufacturing experience in adhesive tape technology.
3M™ Shielding Tapes are designed for applications requiring reliable point-to-point electrical contact, particularly EMI/RFI shielding, grounding and static charge draining. The tapes have a multitude of uses in electronic design and test laboratories for prototyping, design and troubleshooting.
3M™ EMI Shielding Sheets and Films provide EMI and RFI shielding for electronic applications, particularly printed circuit boards. These products are lightweight, flexible and easily designed into a range of applications.
3M™ gaskets & conductive cushions are typically used for applications requiring excellent electrical shielding and cushioning against mechanical shock.
3M™ EMI Absorbers can sufficiently suppress radiated noise from electrical devices in the broadband frequency range common in such products as mobile equipment, mobile phones, and amplifiers, etc.
OEM Insulation Tapes
3M™ Electrical Insulating Tapes are made from a broad range of backings and adhesives to meet the requirements of different applications and environments. Extensive quality control and testing, combined with accurate process controls, ensure that you get the highest quality electrical grade products.
Liquid Resins
3M™ Scotchcast™ Resins are 100% solids, thermosetting, electrical-grade insulating resins. Classified chemically as either epoxies or polyurethanes, the product line includes two-part epoxy liquids and twopart polyurethane liquids. Their unique electrical and physical properties make them ideal for insulating and protecting electrical/electronic parts and assemblies.
Heat Shrink
Heat shrink tubing, from 3M, includes excellent quality thin, medium and thick walled heat shrink tubing as well as adhesive lined heat shrink tubing for a multitude of applications. 3M Heat shrink tubing offers excellent split and crack resistance and a very precise shrink ratio and recovery.
Cable & Wire Management
The Scotchcode range offers a multitude of ways to mark your product from cables and wires to motor leads to sports equipment. The range features dispensers, pre-printed alphanumeric and coloured tape, and write-on books and tags.
3M provides a wide range of static shielding and barrier packaging products to protect sensitive electronic components from static charges during transit and while in storage.
To meet your specific needs, 3M provides shielding bags, cushioned bags and wrap, moisture barrier bags and more in a variety of sizes and material composition
3M™ Static Control Workstation Products are designed to provide a safe environment for the handling and assembly of sensitive components. These products drain static charge from personnel, limit the build-up of static charges on non-conductive materials on the bench top, and monitor the system to ensure that it is operating properly. These various components can be configured to work together providing optimal protection for your application.
