In an effort to standardize and approve materials for use by the branches of military service and the US Department of Defense, Mil Specs were designed for engineers to locate and choose materials for specific military applications. Those specs have been tested and approved for application within categories of material. Advanced Technology Supply, Inc. can supply tape products and rubber products that meet Mil Spec requirements.
MIL-SPEC Tape Products
ATS Mil Spec Tapes can be used for electrical insulation in electrical wire harnesses, electrical coils, capacitors, transformers and printed circuit boards. The primary purpose is to block electrical currents from creating a short circuit or an electrical breakdown where it is not wanted and could be detrimental and or dangerous.

MIL-SPEC Rubber Products
ATS Mil Spec Rubber products can be used as gaskets, seals, vibration and sound dampeners and insulation blankets. Commonly these products are specified in conjunction with metal fabricated aircraft parts. These varied rubber materials may have properties from heat and or flame resistance, low temperature resistance, chemical resistance, or compression set resistance. Above properties are spelled out within the appropriate Military Specification.
