UL 94 V-0 (when combined with Kapton® 200H)
* Kapton® is a registered trademark of an affiliate of Qnity Electronics, Inc.

Product Overview
This product bonds a metal stiffener to the shielding film on an FPC while enabling connection between the FPC GND and external GND through the shielding film and metal stiffener. This increases flexibility in FPC routing design. Because no coverlay opening is required, the product also helps simplify the process and maintain a flat FPC surface.
* Performance is not guaranteed when used in combination with shielding films other than those manufactured by TATSUTA.
Features
-
Enables connection to external GND through the shielding film and metallic stiffener
Supports high-density FPC wiring designs. -
Enables continuous shielding around the stiffener
Because FGBF-700 can be bonded directly onto the shielding film, shielding can be maintained around the perimeter of the stiffener. -
Reduces surface unevenness of the FPC
Eliminating the need for a coverlay opening helps reduce unevenness on the component-mounting surface.
