Buy low price high quality Phlogopite Mica Tape for Insulation. Phlogopite Mica Tape is a high-performance fire-resistant insulating tape made from phlogopite mica paper bonded with a high-temperature silicone resin, typically reinforced with glass fiber cloth or PET film. It’s especially used in fire survival cables where higher temperature resistance is needed compared to muscovite mica tape.
Key Features of Phlogopite Mica Tape:
Base Mineral: Phlogopite Mica (KMg₃(AlSi₃O₁₀)(OH)₂)
Temperature Resistance: Up to 1100°C – 1200°C
Excellent Flexibility: Easily wraps around wire cores
High Dielectric Strength: Good insulation even under fire
Low Smoke & Halogen-Free: Safe for people and equipment in fire
