3M

Application Ideas

• Mask for printed circuit boards during wave solder or solder dip process.

• Used as release surface in fabrication of parts cured at elevated temperatures.

Storage

Store under normal conditions of 60° to 80°F (16° to 27°C) and 40 to 50% R.H. in the original carton.

Shelf Life

To obtain best performance, use this product within 3 years from date of manufacture.

Features

• Employs a proprietary technology that results in extremely low electrostatic discharge at unwind and removal from the

PWB. Conventional polyimide tapes can typically generate over 10,000 volts during use which can damage board

mounted electronic components. 3M™ Low Static Polyimide Film Tape 5419 overcomes this problem without any of

the typical drawbacks of conventional “anti-static” or “static-free” tapes (e.g., variable adhesion and opaqueness).

• At room temperature the properties of polyimide and polyester film are similar. However, as the temperature increases or

decreases, the properties of the polyimide film are less affected than polyester.

• Polyimide film does not soften at elevated temperatures, thus, the film provides an excellent release surface at elevated

temperatures.

• Gold tab protection during wave solder of printed circuit boards.

• RoHS compliant.
