Kapton Tape for High Temperature Hot End?
October 24, 2013 07:53PM
I am using an E3D hot end and the last kapton tape I tried started smoking when going near 300C. Does anyone know of a place that has kapton tape that is rated for 300C or higher? I accidentally bought kapton film tape thinking it was adhesive that goes up to 500C, but I am having trouble finding adhesive kapton rated higher than 260C. Is there another method for attaching thermistors to a high temperature hot end? Thanks.
