Provided that different magnetic tapes are for incremental or absolute measuring systems, magnetic tapes also have differ by pole pitch. However, the consistent components of flexible magnetic tape include:

  • Flexible tape - for adhesion
  • Flexible stainless steel - for strength & conductive purposes
  • Permeable cover band - for protection
  • Special pole searcher film - for determining the pole pitch and the number of tracks

For more information on magnetic tapes, including technical data such as operation temperatures and pole pitch, download the ELGO Magnetic Tapes Brochure (PDF).
