CHR 23816 is manufactured from silicone rubber/fiberglass cloth backing coated with high-temperature silicone adhesive. 23816 tape is designed to withstand both the punishing abrasion of grit blasting and the extreme temperatures/pressures associated with the plasma spray process. The adhesive of it is a high-temperature silicone, which allows the product to withstand continuous temperatures up to 500◦F and also prevents tape slippage after application. It has excellent strength and flexibility, which allows for easy wrapping of complex shapes and minimized wrinkling during the flexing of cables.
Applications: 23816 tape is used in the plasma spray process- a method of applying thin coatings of meal or high-temperature ceramics to a surface. The coating is sprayed at high pressure and at extreme temperatures. The tape is applied adjacent to areas of parts that are to be plasma sprayed. It protects these areas both from the grit blasting, which is used as a surface preparation, and from the actual plasma spray coating. The aerospace industry is the prime market for the use of plasma spray tapes, specifically jet engine manufactureres, overhaul centers, major airline maintenance centers, Air Force Bases and Naval Air Rework Facilities.
