E&H 753-MP Metalized PEEK Insulation Cover Splicing Tape | BMS 5-157

Please Note: All E&H products have a 1-2 weeks lead time

E&H 753-MP (BMS 5-157 Grade A or C) is a dull gray metalized PEEK (polyether ether ketone) pressure sensitive insulation cover splicing tape — engineered for the fabrication of aircraft insulation blanket covers and the installation of insulation blankets. Built on a dull gray metalized PEEK film with a 10x10 visual scrim count and a highly fire-retardant acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive, the 753-MP is purpose-built for sealing sewn seams and closing fabrication slits or holes around brackets, conduits, and other objects after installation. Manufactured by E&H Laminating & Slitting Company — the recognized specialist in aircraft insulation blanket tapes — it meets Boeing BMS 5-157 Rev. K Type I Class 2 or 3 Grade A or C Form I Comp MPEEK, the FAA Critical Radiant Heat Panel test (FAR 25.856(A)), FAR Part 25.853 (A or B), and the Boeing BSS-7230 12-second vertical burn test. Flame time is 0 seconds with no drips, and burn length averages 1.4 inches. Shelf life is a minimum of 18 months in cool, dry storage.

Key Features
