Buy low price high quality Muscovite Mica Tape for Insulation. Muscovite Mica Tape is a high-temperature insulating material made from muscovite mica paper bonded with a silicone resin or other heat-resistant binder and often reinforced with glass fiber or polyester film. It’s widely used for electrical insulation, especially in fire-resistant cables.
Key Features of Muscovite Mica Tape:
Base Material: Muscovite Mica (KAl₂(AlSi₃O₁₀)(OH)₂)
Temperature Resistance: Up to 950°C – 1000°C
Fire Resistance: Maintains insulation under flame for over 3 hours
Dielectric Strength: High (usually > 20 kV/mm)
Flexibility: Can be wrapped around conductors
Low Smoke & Toxicity: When used in fire scenarios
Technical Properties:
| Property | Typical Value |
|---|---|
| Mica Type | Muscovite |
| Thickness | 0.08 – 0.15 mm |
| Width | 20 – 1000 mm |
| Temperature Resistance | Up to 1000°C |
| Dielectric Strength | > 20 kV/mm |
| Tensile Strength | High (with glass reinforcement) |
| Flame Resistance | Complies with IEC 60331 |
Applications:
Fire-resistant cables (power, control, instrumentation)
Aerospace and railway cables
Industrial furnaces
Motors and transformers
Nuclear power facilities
Advantages:
Excellent fireproofing
Non-toxic and environmentally safe
Chemically stable
Maintains insulation integrity during fire
Strong mechanical reinforcement (with glass/polyester backing)
Types of Mica Tape:
| Type | Mica Type | Temp Resistance | Key Use |
|---|---|---|---|
