Advanced Technology Supply, Inc. was contracted to custom slit and rewind PTFE tape rolls for the aircraft repair and overhaul industry. First, we rewound the 36 yard master on 3 inch core to a 6 yard master on 3 inch core. Then, using a single knife, we individually slit the 6 yard rolls to a 1 inch width.
Meeting a .010 of an inch precision tolerance, we were able to rewind and custom slit PTFE tape rolls to meet exact customer specifications.
