CONTACTA Flat Copper Tape Reel - 12.5mm

The CONTACTA Flat Copper Tape is a high-quality, precision-engineered electrical conductor designed for professional installations, particularly in creating large area inductive loops. This versatile tape features a 99.5% pure copper core with a consistent 1.25mm² cross-sectional area, ensuring optimal conductivity and reliability for sensitive audio and signal transmission applications.

Supplied on a convenient 100-metre reel, this tape is engineered for ease of installation under flooring, carpets, and other surfaces. A key advantage is its solderable insulation film, allowing for secure and durable connections without the need to strip the tape, saving time and reducing the risk of damage to the conductor. The insulation itself is robust, with a high tensile strength of 200N/mm² and an elongation of 60%, providing excellent durability during the pull-through and laying process.

This copper tape is the fundamental component in constructing large area loops used for induction hearing systems, which are essential for assisted listening in public spaces. These systems provide clear, direct audio transmission to compatible hearing aids and receivers, drastically improving accessibility and sound quality by cutting through background noise.

Professional Applications & Suitability

When planning an installation, it is crucial to use the provided loop calculator tool to determine the correct tape width and configuration for your specific project requirements. Expert guidance is available to ensure a successful setup. The resultant large area loops are ideal for a wide range of environments where clear audio is paramount, including classrooms and lecture theatres, conference centres, places of worship, theatres, auditoriums, and sports arenas.
