Heat Conducting Double Sided Tape
Thermally conductive double sided adhesive tape for bonding heat-generating components to heat sinks, metal housings, LED modules and electronic assemblies. CT Tape supports common roll supply, custom slitting, sheets and die-cut parts for OEM and industrial purchasing needs.
What Is Heat Conducting Double Sided Tape?
Heat conducting double sided tape is a pressure-sensitive adhesive tape designed to bond parts while helping transfer heat between surfaces. It is commonly used where screws, clips or liquid adhesive are not ideal for assembly speed, clean bonding or thin component design.
For purchasing and engineering teams, the key selection points are thickness, thermal conductivity, adhesive type, liner, width, roll length, die-cut shape and the final working temperature of the assembly.
Thermal Transfer Bonding
Helps conduct heat from LEDs, modules or components to heat sinks, housings or metal substrates while keeping a stable bond.
Clean Assembly
Supplied as rolls, sheets or die-cut parts for faster positioning and cleaner assembly compared with liquid adhesive.
Custom Supply
Thickness, width, roll length, liner and converting format can be matched to OEM production, distributor stock or project orders.
Core Performance for Thermal Bonding Applications
This section focuses on the purchasing and engineering factors that usually affect tape selection: heat transfer, bonding stability, insulation behavior, converting format and specification flexibility.
Thermal Conductive Layer
Supports heat transfer between components and heat-dissipation parts where a thin adhesive interface is required.
Double Sided Adhesion
Bonds both contact surfaces and helps reduce the need for mechanical fastening in selected assembly designs.
Electrical Insulation
Common structures can provide thermal transfer while maintaining electrical insulation for electronic assemblies.
Custom Thickness Options
Common thickness options can be selected according to gap, surface contact, bonding area and assembly pressure.
Roll or Die-Cut Supply
Available as jumbo rolls, slit rolls, sheets or die-cut pieces for production lines and project-based purchasing.
Application Areas for Thermal Bonding and Heat Transfer
Heat conducting double sided tape is commonly selected for assemblies where heat transfer, clean bonding, thin profile and stable positioning are required at the same time.
LED Lighting Modules
Used between LED strips, light boards or modules and aluminum heat sinks for thin bonding and heat transfer.
Power Modules
Helps position and bond heat-generating components to metal housings, radiators or thermal management parts.
Automotive Electronics
Suitable for selected electronic assemblies where stable bonding, insulation and controlled heat transfer are required.
Consumer Electronics
Used in compact devices where mechanical fastening is limited and clean adhesive assembly is preferred.
Heat Sink Bonding
Provides a pressure-sensitive bonding layer between thermal parts and metal or coated surfaces.
Industrial Equipment
Supports project-based use in control equipment, power devices and other industrial thermal management assemblies.
Specifications for Purchasing and Custom Converting
The values below are common purchasing references for heat conducting double sided tape. Final specification should be confirmed according to substrate, bonding area, working temperature and converting method.
| Base Material | Glass fabric structure, other structures can be reviewed by application requirement. |
|---|---|
| Adhesive Type | Thermally conductive acrylic adhesive, selected according to bonding surface and working condition. |
| Color | White is a common option; other appearance requirements can be checked for custom projects. |
| Liner | Release liner options can be matched to roll supply, sheet supply or die-cut converting. |
| Long-Term Temperature | Up to 120°C reference value, final use depends on substrate and assembly condition. |
| Short-Term Temperature | Up to 180°C reference value for short exposure, final confirmation required before bulk order. |
| Die-Cutting | Custom shape, custom size, kiss-cut parts, sheeted parts and liner-supported parts available. |
| Packaging | Neutral packaging, label support and OEM packaging can be discussed by order quantity and supply format. |
Thickness, width, roll length, liner and supply format can be adjusted for distributor stock, OEM production or project-based orders.
All values are reference specifications for purchasing discussion. Final tape structure should be confirmed by application, substrate, temperature, pressure, bonding area and converting method.
OEM Support for Roll, Sheet and Die-Cut Supply
CT Tape can support different purchasing formats for thermal conductive double sided tape, from standard slit rolls to customized die-cut parts for production assembly and project supply.
Slitting & Rewinding
Jumbo rolls can be slit into required widths and rewound into finished roll lengths for production or distributor inventory.
Die Cutting & Kiss Cutting
Custom shapes, holes, tabs, liner-supported parts and kiss-cut formats can be prepared according to drawings or samples.
Roll / Sheet Supply
Finished rolls, sheets and small-format pieces can be arranged for different assembly methods and order quantities.
Liner & Structure Matching
Release liner, thickness, adhesive side and handling format can be reviewed according to bonding area and converting process.
Packaging by Requirement
Neutral packaging, label support and OEM packaging can be discussed for distributor supply, project delivery or repeat orders.
Practical Support for Industrial Tape Purchasing
Choosing a thermal conductive tape supplier is not only about one specification. Purchasing teams also need clear communication, practical converting support and a supplier who can help confirm suitable options before bulk order.
Industrial Tape Focus
Product communication is based on tape structure, converting method and real assembly conditions instead of generic catalog wording.
OEM Converting Support
Slitting, rewinding, sheets, kiss-cutting and die-cut parts can be reviewed according to drawings, samples or application photos.
Practical Specification Discussion
Thickness, thermal conductivity, liner, temperature and supply format can be confirmed step by step before final purchase.
Flexible Supply for Different Orders
Support can be matched to sample checks, project orders, distributor stock and repeat OEM production requirements.
Clearer Cooperation Process
Application details, target size, quantity and packaging needs are reviewed before quotation to reduce back-and-forth communication.
Application-Based Recommendation
Tape options are discussed around substrate, heat source, bonding pressure and working condition, not only around a model number.
Frequently Asked Questions
These questions cover common purchasing points for heat conducting double sided tape, including thickness, thermal conductivity, custom converting, samples and final specification confirmation.
What thickness range is commonly available for heat conducting double sided tape?
Common thickness options are usually around 0.1-0.5 mm. The suitable thickness depends on bonding gap, contact surface, assembly pressure and the required thermal interface between the component and heat sink.
What thermal conductivity can be supplied?
A 1.2 W/mK reference grade is commonly used for purchasing discussion. Other structures or grades should be confirmed according to the actual heat source, substrate, bonding area and working temperature.
Can the tape be supplied in custom widths and roll lengths?
Yes. Jumbo rolls can be slit into custom widths, and finished rolls can be supplied in common lengths such as 25 m or 50 m, or adjusted according to order and production requirements.
Can CT Tape supply die-cut thermal adhesive parts?
Yes. CT Tape can support sheets, die-cut parts, kiss-cut parts, holes, tabs and liner-supported formats. Drawings, samples or application photos are helpful for checking the suitable converting method.
Is this tape electrically insulating?
Common thermal conductive adhesive tape structures can provide thermal transfer while maintaining electrical insulation. The final insulation requirement should still be confirmed by the actual structure, thickness and application condition.
Can samples be prepared before bulk supply?
Samples can be discussed before bulk order. Please provide target thickness, width, application, substrate, working temperature and quantity so the sample format can be matched more efficiently.
How should the final specification be confirmed?
Final specification should be confirmed by application, substrate, thermal requirement, bonding area, pressure, temperature, liner, converting method and packaging requirement before production.
