Would this product work for shielding, as in the electronics of a guitar? Non-conductive adhesive means each piece must be soldered to ground.

I'm sorry but I don't know. It's like thin aluminum foil with some kind of adhesive on one side.

Good question. I use copper foil for guitar shielding, but haven't tried the aluminum. If you do use it, I suggest forming the cavity liner from one unbroken piece of foil tape. If you decide to solder a ground wire, ribbon, or strap, just be sure not to mix aluminum with copper as it will eventually corrode from electrolysis. I hope this helps.

I would find a tape especially for electrical purposes, because of its aluminum qualities it has the potential to conduct even a small ammount of electricity. The 3m websites also states it's good for shielding but they refer to heat not electricity.one thing you could do is lay electrical tape on top of your electronics and then lay this tape on top .

Absolutely not. Do not remove the insulation. Very unsafe to do so. The instrument is designed to work by detecting current passing through the wires through any type of insulation.

No soldering but.. Be careful to plug in antenna... And I'm not real happy with the end result.

If you are trying to melt the wires together without any solder, it won't help. You definitely need to use solder to join them. I would recommend soldering the two wires together and then using heat shrink wrap to cover it or seal it depending on your application. You can always just use electrical tape around it as well. I have used this product for many projects- replacing tv capacitors, to wiring on a motorcycle without any problems. It can definitely be a very handy skill to learn. Youtube is a great resource as well. :) Good luck!

I use mine for electronics. You can't solder stainess or steel. It would have to be made out of brass or copper. A better idea would be the gun type soldering iron or something bigger than this one. I think I would call someplace like Guitar Center and ask what they use.

I wouldn't recommend it as most adhesives will melt with heat. and epoxies wont conduct heat you want to achieve. go with magnetic heaters for oil pans

If you connect it directly, it will not work well because it is not shielded. You are better off using an adapter and an instrument cable.

No...that's what the USB shield is for..inside the insulation where the wires connect to the USB connector, there is a ground wire that should be soldered onto the sheild. It's the standard. I just tend to worry about long flexible attachments connected to my laptop that plug into my usb port...I would be very sad if it was to bend the USB connector that is soldered to the motherboard.

Its already anti static and safe for electronics. I dont thing you need to ground the pad. Just keep your wrist strap on amd you will be fine. An alligator clip will likely cut up and ruin the surface of the pad.

The adhesive is pretty tacky and it is very dense material. It is more for silencing sheet metal (e.g. car panels from speaker vibrations). I used it on the back of my tv and it worked great. I would look into something like Self Seal Polyethylene Foam Pipe Insulation, or a Water Hammer Arrester if the pipes are shaking from a clothes washer.

Yes, this should not be conductive, unless you contaminate it. It's still not a good idea to spill it everywhere though

I don't know if it is magnetically shielded....none of the other dozens of free standing speakers I've had over the decades have been shielded. The hole is where the sound comes out. The speaker is mounted inside in such a way as to have the sound come out through the hole.

Any solder rated for electronics should be fine.... Lead free would be ideal though...

Acid core solder would not be used for electronic work, only for metal work. If you are doing light metal work with acid-core solder, this iron would work fine.

No, It is designed to attach an amp to a speaker cabinet and is not shielded.

You can, but I wouldn't use solder. They make connection clips so you don't have to solder at all. The reason is because it has 4 very small contacts that need to be separate or it won't work

I am not sure what you are asking? I do use it to solder heavy wire, has plenty of heat. I have soldered #10 wire no problem. Some have soldered # 8 wire. You wouldn't use it to solder a circuit board.
