Unasco Ceramic Anti-Seize Tape
Before ordering, please read the "Product Description & Specs" tab content for more information about this item.
Product Description
Unasco Anti-Seize Ceramic Tape is designed to aid in the assembly and disassembly of threaded components on applications where metal-filled tape isn’t appropriate. Ideal for applications where an anti-seize compound would be inefficient or not compatible due to contamination risks.
Resistant to a broad range of chemicals such as strong alkaline solutions, most chemical and acid vapors, road salt, steam, salt, and iodized water. Compatible with a wide range of metals including galvanized steel, steel, iron, brass, copper, aluminum, titanium, and magnesium. Won’t cause corrosion when used in stainless steel applications.
Unasco's Anti-Seize Tapes are manufactured from PTFE resin mixed with metal or ceramic flakes. These flakes act as slide or bearing plates between the two mating surfaces, resulting in excellent lubricity which prevents galling and seals threads to protect them from corrosion, dirt, and grit.
Features & Benefits
- Ideal for applications where metal-filled tape isn’t appropriate.
- Won’t cause corrosion when used in stainless steel applications.
- Effective across a broad range of temperatures.
- Resistant to a broad range of chemicals.
- Compatible with a wide range of metals.
- Non-toxic.
- Non-flammable.
Application Instructions
For fittings up to 1-1/2 inch / 38mm diameter
- Use 1/2 inch / 12mm wide tape.
- Clean the male and female threads thoroughly.
- Wrap the tape around the male thread. Take care to keep the tape under tension as you are wrapping so the tape moulds itself into the root of the thread.
- Make sure that you wrap with the thread.
- Make sure that the tape does not overlap the end of the fitting.
- Three wraps seal most threads.
Note. For poor quality or damaged threads or threads that are hard to seal like parallel threads or threads on fittings subject to vibration, more than four wraps may be necessary.
* Multiple cases may be shipped per package in order to minimize the charge for shipping.

Special Order Policies
- Special orders are non-returnable (and non-cancelable if materials have been already ordered or cut before the cancellation request was received).
- Special order sizes often ship direct from our supplier so will not arrive together with stocked products.
Special Order Minimums
- Minimum requirements apply because a size may be non-stock.
- Minimum Quantities: If a particular size has a minimum item requirement, please only order that size in multiples of that minimum (e.g. if the minimum is 12, then use multiples like 12, 24, 36, etc).

hot melt rubber (synthetic)
Offers the widest range of application flexibility available. Exhibits excellent processing performance whether manually or automatically applied. Has superior tensile strength, adhesion properties and holding force which ensures consistent, reliable seals. Hot melt adhesive will bond faster to a surface which is referred to as quick-grab or quick-stick. It typically has higher tack (will feel stickier to the touch), but is also softer. It has lower heat resistance, shear resistance, and sometimes UV resistance than an acrylic adhesive. NOTE: it is called hot melt because the adhesive is applied hot by the manufacturer and then hardens as it cools (you do not need to apply heat to the tape yourself).
natural rubber
Properties are similar to that of hot melt rubber, but natural rubber often holds where other adhesives won't (recycled fibers, dust, cold, heat and heavy loads). It provides good overall adhesion and moisture resistance.
acrylic
Offer excellent performance, especially for applications in temperatures less than 40°F and greater then 120°F. It provides excellent clarity, has high shear strength, is usually more permanent/durable even when exposed to moisture, and it ages well over extended periods in fluorescent and sunlight. Since it remains clear for the life of the application and does not yellow over time it is ideal for applications such as sealing white cartons. While it has good initial adhesion it does take 24-48 hours to cure and to achieve its maximum bond strength (has gradual adhesion buildup). Another difference between hot melt rubber and acrylic adhesive is if you fold tape over making the two adhesive sides touch the acrylic adhesive will remain attached to the carrier (e.g. paper, film) while a hot melt adhesive will stick to itself and pull off of the carrier. It is the best choice for clarity, UV resistance and aging characteristics.
silicone
Is great for extreme temperature applications since silicone adhesive can work in continuous operating temperatures from -100°F to 500°F. They also exhibit good chemical resistance, retain electrical properties, and remove cleanly with little or no residue.
zinc oxide
Zinc oxide based adhesive formula is a skin-friendly adhesive which is commonly used on sports medicine tapes.
Thickness, AKA caliper or gauge, refers to the distance from one surface of a tape backing, or adhesive, to the other.
1 mil = 1/1000 of an inch
Examples: 1/16 inch = 62.5 mils; 1/32 inch = 31.25 mils
Lower gauge gloves are heavier - have thicker construction, fewer stiches knitted per inch and offer less dexterity.
Higher gauge gloves are lighter - have thinner/finer construction, more stitches knitted per inch and offer more dexterity.
Gloves offered typically runs from 7 to 18 (12 and 13 are in the middle of the scale).
