Frequently Asked Questions
What is E&H 753-MPE tape used for?
E&H 753-MPE is a metalized PEEK insulation blanket cover splicing tape used to fabricate aircraft insulation blanket covers requiring BMS 5-157 Grade E, seal sewn seams, close fabrication slits, and cover holes around brackets and conduits — including weight-critical and exterior-exposed applications.
What makes the 753-MPE different from other E&H insulation blanket tapes?
The 753-MPE is a metalized PEEK tape with the broadest BMS 5-157 grade coverage (A, C, and E, including exterior-exposed Grade E), the lightest weight at 1.85 oz/sq yd, and the best fire performance in the E&H lineup at a 1.2-inch average burn length.
What Boeing specification does E&H 753-MPE meet?
It meets Boeing BMS 5-157 Rev. K, Type I, Class 2 or 3, Grade A, C, or E, Form I, Comp MPEEK, and passes the FAA Critical Radiant Heat Panel test, FAR 25.856(A), FAR 25.853 (A or B), and Boeing BSS-7230.
