Flat Braided Tapes are "second generation" lacing/spot tying construction. They are designed to provide maximum strength with minimum space requirements. Other advantages include increased gripping area and superior impregnation characteristics. Flat braided tapes are specified for most military and space oriented applications, and are currently finding increased usage among commercial, electrical, and electronic maufacturers.
