Premium 3.5 mil double-coated membrane switch spacer with High Performance Acrylic Adhesive 200MP for reliable switch actuation and circuit separation in industrial applications.
The 3M™ Membrane Switch Spacer 7953MP is a premium double-coated adhesive spacer specifically engineered for membrane switch applications and circuit layer assembly. This 3.5 mil thick spacer features 3M's High Performance Acrylic Adhesive 200MP, which delivers exceptional shear strength and resists slippage and edge lifting during repeated switch actuation cycles. The product is constructed with 1.5 mil acrylic adhesive on each side of a 0.5 mil polyester film carrier, providing optimal structural integrity and performance in demanding industrial applications.
Designed for separation of switch circuitry until actuation, this membrane switch spacer excels in withstanding the repeated stress and environmental challenges of switch operation. The double-linered design features 58 lb. polycoated kraft (PCK) paper liners that resist humidity, curling, tunneling, and buckling, ensuring dimensional stability for various die-cutting operations and high-speed rotary processing. The adhesive formulation provides excellent temperature resistance from -40°C to 204°C (-40°F to 400°F), along with outstanding resistance to solvents and UV exposure, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.
The 7953MP spacer is ideal for a wide range of industrial applications including membrane switches, switch mounting, metal dome placement, lead protection, and die-cut laminations. Its lay-flat liner design enables improved rotary die-cutting at high speeds and minimizes waste through cleaner slitting and die-cutting operations. This product is formulated for excellent adhesion to metals, polycarbonate, ABS, and polyester surfaces, with some initial repositionability for precise placement accuracy. With an 18-month shelf life and designed for industrial/occupational use only, this spacer represents the industry standard for reliable membrane switch construction.
