Aluminium glass tape is a specialist sealing tape used globally in HVAC and insulation work. It combines an aluminium foil face with a glass cloth backing and a solvent acrylic adhesive. This build gives the tape strength, flexibility, and reliable holding power for sealing joints and seams. For contractors, insulation installers, and procurement teams, it is a practical option for ductwork, pipe insulation, and laminated fiberglass blanket applications where heat resistance and vapour control are needed.
How It Is Made
Alu glass tape is built with a 10×10 mesh glass cloth backing and an aluminium foil surface. The adhesive is a solvent acrylic type, protected by a silicone paper liner for easier handling before application. This structure helps the tape stay stable during installation. The glass cloth adds tear resistance, while the foil face supports heat reflection and vapour control. It is made for professional sealing work rather than general-purpose patching.
Key Performance Properties
This tape is designed for demanding thermal applications. It is flame retardant and high temperature resistant, with a service temperature range from -30°C to +120°C. It offers low moisture vapour transmission, so it works well as a vapour barrier in insulation systems. The adhesive provides strong adhesion and holding power. It is also flexible, which helps it conform over uneven surfaces. In addition, it can be die-cut into specific sizes or shapes for production or site use.
Where It Is Used
Aluminium glass tape is mainly used for joining and sealing aluminium glass laminated fiberglass blankets, duct board joints and seams, and industrial pipe insulation seams and connections. In HVAC work, it helps close exposed joints and maintain a neat finish on insulated surfaces. In thermal insulation work, it supports vapour sealing and helps protect the insulation layer. Because it reflects heat and light, it is also useful in applications where surface performance and durability are important.
ASMACO Alu Glass Tape
ASMACO Alu Glass Tape is our premium aluminium glass tape for professional sealing work. It is built for flame-retardant, high-heat use and is suitable for HVAC ductwork and insulation applications that need dependable adhesion and clean finishing.

How to Apply It
For best results, clean and dry the surface before application. Remove dust, oil, and loose particles. Apply the tape with firm pressure so the adhesive bonds evenly across the joint. Keep the tape aligned over seams, overlaps, and connection points. On uneven surfaces, press it down gradually to maintain contact. For product support, use our contact page to reach our team.
