3M Lead Foil Tape 420 is an electrically and thermally conductive tape. This highly conformable tape resists flame, moisture, weather, UV degradation, chemicals and radiation. Mated with an easy-release film liner, this malleable tape can be shaped into complex or detailed patterns or die-cut into specific shapes to meet assembly and manufacturing process needs.
- Conformable tape resists flame, moisture, weather, UV degradation, and many chemicals used in electroplating and anodizing processes
- The rubber-based adhesive bonds well to a variety of surfaces, including most metals
- Performs over a wide variety of temperatures
- Liner allows tape to be die-cut into specific shapes for assembly and manufacturing processes

PRODUCT FAQ
-
What is 3M™ Lead Foil Tape used for?
3M™ Lead Foil Tape is primarily used for radiation shielding, such as in x-ray or gamma ray personal protection equipment. It can also be used for sealing and grounding applications.
-
Is this tape easy to work with?
Yes! 3M™ Lead Foil Tape has good conformability and hand tearability which makes it very easy to apply. Additionally, the tape adhesive system features high initial adhesion and bond strength.
-
How long will one roll of tape last?
That depends on how much you're using it! One roll measures at approximately 482 mm x 32.9 m, so you can get quite a few uses out of a single roll. The exact number will depend on your specific needs and usage requirements though.
3M™ Lead Foil Tape 420 is a dark gray, lead foil backed tape coated with a distinct green rubber adhesive that offers good initial grab and a long-lasting bond that removes cleanly for most surfaces. It is an extremely conformable and pliable tape that can be formed into detailed and intricate shapes and patterns. The lead foil backing can be burnished to fully cover the adhesive and allow full contact of the lead foil to the metal base. This metal to metal contact results in a continuation of the electrical path, reducing build-up at the adhesive interface.
This lead foil tape is formulated to be electrically and thermally conductive and carries a strong acid and base resistance, making it ideal for electroplating or as a radiation barrier. Due to the density, weight and malleability of the lead foil, this tape makes an excellent choice for weighting and balancing, particularly for golf clubs where weight and conformability are crucial for balance and club performance.
Application Ideas- Masking applications in electroplating
- Radiation barrier
- Moisture barrier
- Chemical milling
- Add weight and balance to equipment parts, golf clubs, tennis rackets, etc.
