Rubber-Based Double-Sided Tapes
Rubber-based tapes have excellent quick tack and bond well to a variety of materials. Great for use on light weight substrates. Overall environmental performance is poor and ultimate strength is typically lower than acrylic tapes.
Application Ideas: Foam bonding, core starting, point of purchase displays and other interior applications
Metal/High Surface Energy Plastics Adhesion: High
Low Surface Energy (LSE) Plastics Adhesion: High
Foam Adhesion: High
High Performance Acrylic Double-Sided Tapes
Premium adhesives for high performance applications requiring high strength, high temperature resistance, and chemical resistance.
Application Ideas: Nameplates, membrane switch, thin gauge metal lamination and fuel line labels
Metal/High Surface Energy Plastics Adhesion: Very High
Low Surface Energy (LSE) Plastics Adhesion: Low
Foam Adhesion: Low
General Purpose Acrylic Double-Sided Tapes
These tapes, which provide strength, high tack, and good environmental performance, are a great choice for most applications.
Application Ideas: Foam bonding, gasket lamination, fabrics, flocks and cardstocks
Metal/High Surface Energy Plastics Adhesion: High
Low Surface Energy (LSE) Plastics Adhesion: Medium
Foam Adhesion: High
Low Surface Energy Acrylic Double-Sided Tapes
These tapes provide excellent bonds to low surface energy plastics and painted substrates. Good environmental performance.
Application Ideas: Bonding polypropylene, polyethylene and powder-coated paints surfaces
Metal/High Surface Energy Plastics Adhesion: High
Low Surface Energy (LSE) Plastics Adhesion: Very High
Foam Adhesion: Low
Differential Double-Sided Tapes
These specialty tapes allow you to combine the best of both worlds by ensuring the adhesion level you want to each substrate. From clean removal from a surface to bonding a silicone substrate, these tapes give you substantial flexibility.
Application Ideas: Silicone rubber, temporary carpet installation, temporary signage and LSE plastics
Metal/High Surface Energy Plastics Adhesion: Product dependent
Low Surface Energy (LSE) Plastics Adhesion: Product dependent
Foam Adhesion: Product dependent
