Details

Introducing Maker Tape! Our favorite nylon-steel blend is now thinner and z-axis conductive. Just overlap two pieces of Maker Tape to create a solid electrical connection. This tape is much stronger and easier to work with than commonly used copper foil tapes. The added strength allows for a 1/8” width tape, perfect for Crazy CircuitsTM projects on LEGOTM bricks or compatible systems. The 1/4” width is perfect for sticking down LEDs in Paper Circuits projects.

Overview

Maker Tape's nylon fibers combined with conductive materials result in an amazingly strong and highly conductive tape that won't leave a mess on your next project. Maker Tape turns any surface into your next circuitry project. Use it on walls or windows, cardboard or fabric, design your own Paper Craft creation or even apply it to building bricks for use with Crazy Circuits.

Unlike other conductive tape options Maker Tape is specially designed to be Z Axis Conductive for much easier project creation. Just overlap two pieces of Maker Tape to create a solid electrical connection. Just tape down the component for a simple connection. No mess, hassle, or special tools needed. 

Maker Tape works well for projects of all sizes. Use the 1/4th inch wide tape for paper to create light up paper crafts or use it on fabric to make short term wearable projects. Use the 1/8th inch wide tape on any compatible bricks along with our Crazy Circuits components to make circuit boards on plastic. Since Maker Tape has under 5 ohms per foot of resistance it can be used for both simple circuits as well as Arduino level projects.

While we typically use our 1/4th inch wide tape with LEDs it also works quite well with our self sticking vibrating motors. Add these to a paper project to make your crafts move and shake. 

This listing is for one 5M (16.4 feet) of Maker Tape at a width of 3mm (1/8th inch). Tape comes with a plastic backing applied which makes it ideal for precutting. When using the tape either run the tape over the leg or exposed wire of your part, or place the part on top of the tape and apply a small second strip on top (sandwiching the two together).

What Educators are Saying About Geyer

Justin has been nothing but helpful and professional in my requests for these Boeing Defense requirements. He has been able to answer my questions and concerns quickly, and helped in securing the order that I may have made with another supplier had be not been the value-add that he is to your company.

..I contacted Geyer via email. I had an email back within minutes!.. A back and forth via email sometimes takes days with other companies and customer service doesn’t happen like this very often. When it does, it’s much appreciated. Brett at Geyer was very polite and accommodating!

John C.

The customer service rep went as far as to reach out to the manufacturer of a product to answer my question, and then provided pictures. She really went above and beyond and answered the question thoroughly and gave me exactly the information I was looking for. This entire process was also extremely fast.

I called to ask how to submit a Tax Exempt Certificate for my library and spoke to a real person, no automation or asking me to press a number. He was friendly, helpful and got our Tax Exempt status established immediately.

...I don't think I've ever experienced that level of customer service before, and taking it into consideration along with the quality of their products, I would absolutely recommend Geyer to fellow teachers.
