Seam tape plays a crucial role in the aerospace industry as refurbishment of galley, HVAC duct work, insulation blankets, lavatories, manufacturing, and masking solutions. This tape meets all the requirements for high pressure usability and is useful for passenger comfort. The seam tape passes the flammability test and can withstand various temperature ranges. Additionally, its light weight helps with optimum fuel consumption. Owing to its numerous applications, seam tapes are beneficial for the aerospace industry. The expanding aerospace & defense industry is anticipated to lead to a rise in the demand for seam tapes.
Materials, such as silicone-coated nylon (silnylon) and silicone-coated polyester (silpoly) materials, are used for tents, which are not sealed by the Polyurethane (PU) seam tape. Therefore, the seam sealing kit of pre-mixed silicone solution is used for sealing tampered tents. This alternative solution hampers the market.
Technologies, including ultrasonic welding, have emerged as an alternative for seam tapes. These technologies offer permanent solutions to the automotive & aerospace industries. Furthermore, the application of seam tapes is complicated, necessitating maintenance. Using tape requires a lot of monitoring and control. The applicator must be clean, and the adhesive should be applied evenly. All these reasons constrain the usage of the seam tape market.
