3M™ Polycarbonate Carrier 3000 is a continuous, splice-free polycarbonate carrier tape for packaging static-sensitive components. Its embossed, heat-resistant polycarbonate sheet construction meets ANSI/EIA standards for shrinkage, camber, and standard semiconductor pocket dimensions. The carrier tape is available in a broad selection of pocket designs with dimensions to accommodate a variety of common electrical and electronic parts.
FEATURES:
- Features a typical surface resistivity of 10^5 ohms/sq., ideal for static-sensitive components
- Splice-free polycarbonate carrier provides balanced electrostatic shielding and electrostatic decay properties
- Precisely formed pockets effectively fit passive components per ANSI/EIA guideline
- Available in pocket designs with dimensions for a broad selection of common electrical and electronic parts
- Compatible with 3M™ Pressure Sensitive Adhesive Cover Tapes and 3M™ Heat Activated Adhesive Cover Tapes
