The hybrid tape includes an outer member that is formed with a material having desirable tensile qualities, such that the outer member is tailored to exhibit superior fatigue performance in tension induced from bending. The hybrid tape further includes an inner member that is formed with a material having desirable compression qualities, such that the inner member is tailored to exhibit superior fatigue performance in compression induced from bending. The hybrid tape is configured such that the bend neutral axis is located between the inner material and the outer material, thereby insuring the outer material only experiences tension in bending while the inner material only experiences compression in bending. |
