Highlights
  • Isotropic XYZ-axis electrical conductivity
  • Thicker adhesive than 3M™ XYZ-Axis Electrically Conductive Tape 9713
  • Uses nonwoven carbon fiber scrim (usually leads to higher surface contact resistance than 3M™ XYZ-Axis Electrically Conductive Tape 9713)
  • Good contact with both hard and soft surfaces
  • Excellent die-cutting and converting capabilities
  • Nonmagnetic
  • Standard adhesion
  • No nickel

3M™ Electrically Conductive Adhesive Transfer Tape 9712 is an XYZ-axis electrically conductive pressure sensitive adhesive (CPSA) tape that helps enable devices to meet electromagnetic compatibility requirements. This double-sided tape has a conductive carbon fiber scrim carrier. It offers a good balance of adhesion and conductivity, which is optimal for larger contact areas where high electrical conductivity is not required. This tape can be die cut and provides excellent workability, easy handling and has nonmetallic product construction for specialty applications. It provides robust protection against EMI in a range of market segments, including consumer electronics, automotive, medical equipment, communications infrastructure, and aerospace and defense electronics.
