FM665

The FM665 is a flexible Magnetic Rubber Tape will attract to magnetically receptive surfaces such as mild steel, ferromagnetic stainless steel and other high magnetic permeability materials (e.g. iron). Flexible magnetic tape is a thin extruded material comprising of strontium ferrite magnetic powder within a thermo-plastic binder. It is usually magnetised on one face only (multiple pole across the width) and can attract to itself, but only the mating versions give perfect alignment. The flexible magnetic rubber tapes have a maximum recommended operating temperature of 80°C - above this temperature the thermo-plastic (rubber) binder starts to soften causing a demagnetisation as the magnetic domains realign to cancel themselves out. The flexible magnetic tape is mainly used with itself or with steel tape. The combination of magnetic tape and steel tape is used in applications such as secondary glazing conversions and magnetic fly screens.
