## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=AT2971A:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/AT2971A:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

- Backing Thickness: 25 µm
- Holding Power: ≥72 hrs
- Tensile Strength: 90 N/cm
- Elongation at Break: 70%
- Maximum Temperature Resistance: 260°C
- Tape Structure: Silicon adhesive polyimide film
 
### How to Use/Installation

- Clean the surface where the tape will be applied to ensure good adhesion.
- Cut the tape to the desired length, avoiding stretching as you apply.
- Press firmly onto the substrate to eliminate air bubbles and ensure strong bonding.
