Copper has long been used as a conductor of electricity; however, its high resistance to electrical flow made it impractical. Today, the development and creation of the more conductive adhesive have made it possible to use copper foil tape in numerous electrical applications. Copper is widely used in wiring for appliances and electrical equipment such as computers and cell phones. It is also commonly used in household appliances such as cookware, refrigerators and ovens, televisions and lights, home gyms and treadmills, jewelry boxes and watches, car engines, and automotive seals. Copper is also used in the construction of medical devices and sterile equipment as well.
Copper foil tape has several advantages over other forms of electrical cable including the extremely low electrical conductivity level which allows for easy installation. It is also an excellent conductor of thermal energy, thus making it highly suitable for thermal expansion. It is available in different thicknesses and can be rolled or cut into the desired length as per specific requirements. Copper adhesive-coated copper tape is also available in various colors and designs.
