Searching for a tape to seal the end of smd role after using | 19 December, 2020

Hi there.

I'm searching for a good adhesive tape to fix the used smd tape on its reel after mounting. So that the reel will not spin off. It should be have a great glue, so that there is no glue residue after next opening the reel.

Did anybode have a glue where to buy that? The smd manufacturer have these if you order full reels.

But i dont know where to buy...

Thank you in advance, Bjoern

Specific to this very purpose https://www.somersetsolders.com/smt-reel-sealers/p319?gclid=CjwKCAiArIH_BRB2EiwALfbH1AeOU9NaGStQBhvTITVHLZW0UtXMDFfbdo4YB4vtIyP9DxTGYWGAGhoCXLIQAvD_BwE

Nothing Steier is cheap, while its easy enough to find cheap alternatives for cover-tape extenders and splicing consumables, I haven't found anyone else making these, do let me know if you do.

Oh here's another https://www.allsmt.com/SMD-Tape-Reel-Sealer-Strips-with-2-non-adhesive-handles-ESD-type

SMT splice tape is what you are looking for.

I dont think so. SMT splice tape is what i'm using to fit separate smd snippets together... Isnt it?

Yeah, if the convenient non sticky tab for unpeeling is not important to you, narrow tape is another option. "Grid Tape" used for drawing lines on whiteboards is not too sticky and only 4mm wide. Most of the time the lazy option of pulling it really tight and wrapping it down the side works too, if you have plenty of excess cover tape to make that work..
