NEW PRODUCTS – Conductive Nylon Fabric Tape – 5mm + 8mm Wide

With our fun assortment of conductive materials, cosplay and wearables have never been easier to craft!

This Conductive Nylon tape goes great with our other interesting materials, such as copper tape, ITO glass or plastic, conductive inks, etc. We found that the metallic nylon fabric has some great improvements over plain copper tape.

First of all it doesn’t crack when bent or twisted! So you can make all sorts of odd shapes and paths without worrying about broken traces. It’s also more flexible so you can put it on a flexible material.
It comes with conductive glue on the opposite side, so you can tape it directly to capacitive pads.
It’s high conductivity, only a few ohms per foot. It’s not quite as conductive as pure copper tape, but you can definitely power small components.
But, you cannot solder to it like you can with pure copper tape. You can sew it though, since it’s fabric.

Each order comes with a strip of 5mm wide x 10 meter long tape. It’s long enough you can use it for a bunch of projects. Just cut out the size you need and save the rest.

First up, the 5mm!

If this tape isn’t wide enough, we also carry it in 8mm!

And now, the 8mm!
