Simply place the pressure indicating tape between any two surfaces, apply force, remove it, and immediately it reveals a map of interfacial pressure distribution. Force exerted on the pressure indicating tape causes the microcapsules to rupture, producing via color change an instantaneous and permanent high resolution topographical image of pressure variation across the contact area. It can also be used as an impact force sensor, seat pressure sensor, as a strain gauge or even as nip impression paper.įujifilm Prescale ï¿½ is a Mylar-based film that contains a layer of tiny microcapsules. Also known as Fujifilm Prescale ï¿½, pressure indicating tape has many effective applications including use in bolted joint and gasketed interfaces, composite layups, heat sealers and lamination presses. Our pressure indicating tape is a highly accurate, affordable and easy to use thin film that reveals distribution and magnitude of pressure between any two contacting, mating or impacting surfaces.
