A new range of masking products designed to address many of the common issues surrounding the use of masking products was launched by Humiseal at productronica. The second generation product has undergone extensive R&D trials and tests to ensure that it meets the exacting standards required when being used with conformal coatings.

The new range of dots and tapes are available in standard sizes as well as bespoke sizes and formats making them extremely flexible for specific board designs or standard applications. The latest materials are silicone free to avoid de-wetting around masked areas. They are also extremely easy to apply and remove leaving no residue on the substrate.

The specific benefits the new HumiSeal range of masking products include: high surface conformability; clean, easy removal; clean, accurate separation line; silicone free adhesive; easy peel-off dots from carrier tape and solvent resistance

The standard tapes are available in 3mm, 7mm, 10mm, 13mm, 16mm, 19mm, 22mm and 25mm sizes with other sizes available on request. The dots are available in standard sizes of 5mm, 7mm, 10mm, 12mm, 16mm and 19mm with other sizes and shapes also available on request.

Sample packs are available on request.

Commenting on this new generation of masking materials Chris Palin, EMEIA Manager for HumiSeal Europe, said: “ These new dots and tapes represent an entirely new generation of masking products, offering very good resistance to solvents whilst remaining silicone free”.
