3M 7000049078 Lead Foil Tape 1/2 in 36 Yd Rubber Adhesive

Product Description

The 3M 7000049078 is a lead foil tape designed for applications requiring both electrical and thermal conductivity. The malleable lead backing conforms to complex surfaces, curved edges, and detailed patterns, making it well suited for shielding, grounding, and specialized assembly work. A rubber-based adhesive bonds the tape to irregular substrates while delivering long service life. The tape resists flame, moisture, UV degradation, weathering, chemicals, and radiation, allowing it to perform across a wide range of environmental conditions. Licensed electricians, HVAC technicians, and industrial assembly technicians are the primary installers of this product.

This tape is used in residential and commercial electrical shielding, thermal insulation applications, and manufacturing or assembly processes where a conformable, conductive foil tape is required. Its heat and light reflective properties make it effective for protecting sensitive components and enhancing lighting efficiency. The lead foil construction allows the tape to be die-cut into precise shapes for repeatable process applications, and the 1/2 inch width suits tight or narrow installation areas.

Key Features

• Electrically and thermally conductive lead foil backing
• Highly conformable — forms to complex or detailed shapes and can be die-cut for assembly processes
• Resists flame, moisture, UV degradation, weathering, chemicals, and radiation
• Heat and light reflective surface protects components and supports lighting efficiency
• Rubber-based adhesive bonds to irregular substrates and provides long service life
• Dark silver finish suitable for shielding and industrial environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style foil tape for use in electrical shielding, thermal insulation, and industrial assembly applications where an electrically and thermally conductive, conformable lead foil tape is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed electricians or qualified industrial technicians. De-energize all circuits before applying tape to electrical assemblies. Surfaces should be clean and dry for proper adhesion. Lead-containing materials require handling per applicable local health and safety regulations — follow all required PPE and disposal guidelines.
