Premium Adhesive Copper Foil Tape - Double-Sided Conductive - 0.5 inch (12.7 mm) - EMI and RF Shielding, Paper Circuits, Electrical Repairs, Grounding, Arts and Crafts, Home Interior

Using this to make DIY capacitive touch pads for an ESP32/Arduino project (see photos showing wire soldered to a rectangular copper pad made from this tape and an adhesive copper pad stuck directly to the inside of a polycarbonate enclosure).Solders easily with standard multicore lead solder and the solder heat (using here 305 deg C) does not distort the copper or bubble the adhesive on the back with short periods of soldering - the heat quickly spreads evenly throughout the thermally conductive copper rather than melting the adhesive directly below. Works really well for soldering to and solder flows nicely on the copper surface.Adhesive on the back is strong and will reliably stick to polycarbonate project enclosure box sides without lifting or curling at the edges. Polycarbonate has a reasonably high surface energy and I would expect the tape to stick well to similarly high energy surfaces.An ideal low cost tape for RF shielding on projects or for making things like capacitive contact pads. Not too thin and holds its shape when you come to stick it to something. It may crease slightly when removed from the backing, particularly if mishandled, but is easily smoothed out when applying to get it looking flat again. Tests with continuity meter confirm the adhesive is conductive, I measured about half an ohm from front through to the adhesive back so you could layer and overlap multiple strips of tape inside an enclosure to provide shielding to all sides.Recommended.

I needed this copper strip to repair my rear screen heater connection on my car. I had been told that the only possible repair was buying a new rear screen. The copper strip has conductive glue on the back. 1 one inch strip, left to ensure the adhesive fixed on the contact area of the screen, and then I tinned it with solder, resolved the contact with a solder gun and two minutes later heater working fine. The solder gun is best because as soon as you release the trigger the heat dissipates to avoid cracking the glass of the screen. I have loads left for any other electrical repairs.

Put this copper tape round my runner bean tub so far no slugs. Easy to use not too thick. Could be be thicker for ease of applying.

Most adhesive copper foil has the disadvantage that the adhesive is non-conductive; hence, sticking one piece on top of a broken track on a circuit board won't work, you would have to use conductive silver paint as well to get a connection. So I was highly skeptical about this product, given that it costs about the same as regular copper foil.I stuck two pieces together and my multimeter reports that they are in electrical contact. So this stuff does indeed work as advertised and will come in very useful.

The quality of this tape was good, the thickness perfect but, sadly, it didn't stick at all points - found it lifting from areas. To be fair, I was using it on irregular shaped seaglass so possibly not the right tape for my projects. Still have plenty left so yet to find something to use it on...maybe I'll have better luck next time!

Never used anything like this ,but,it worked fine in making new tracks ,canbe cut easily into quite fine widths to suit original tracks ,ok .!!!!!

A thin, very pliable (so you can get it in to nooks and crannies) self adhesive copper tape. My application was for making up some fully shielded dummy USB 3 plugs to stop some unused USB ports causing interference to a neighbouring 2.4GHz WiFi access point. Apparently it also repels snails although since they rarely bother trying to eat my access point I cannot vouch for this.

Decent tape this - strong adhesion compared with cheaper bundled tapes I've had in the past. Would purchase again.
