Our Products Maximize Performance and Reliability for High-End, Technical Composite Materials

At Dunstone, our Hi-Shrink Tapes and Hi-Shrink Tubes are designed to support complex applications that rely on highly technical, advanced composites. In particular, our products support applications that require a release film or layer during the manufacturing process due to the tooling used or in order to produce a clean surface finish. Additionally, our innovative materials are designed to apply compressive force to the underlying part or tool with heat applied in an oven or with just a heat gun — no need for an autoclave.

Whether your application relies on a wet-wound, filament-wound, towpreg or prepreg production process, or makes use of tools such as bladders or mandrels, our shrink products will deliver the results you need while helping you save time and money. Learn more about how we support applications requiring advanced composites below. If you know what you’re looking for, reach out to our engineering team today.
