I don't know about you but we use a ton of Kapton tape in our process. Does anyone have a good supplier for this?

We utilize our distributor(s) Contact East, Hisco, Future, Arrow, etc.. for our needs. There are a multitude of manufacturers for this tape (3M, Dewal Ind.,etc...) so, you need to find out waht you like and dislike for this magic tape. Some manfs. have thick vs. thin adhesive, polyimide thickness, and cost. We have a tool crib that our distributor maintains with min/max qtys to ensure we never run out. You may also want to look at your applications for this stuff and see if you have a lower cost alternative such as temporary making compounds etc...
