PowerTape is a single sided Banner Hem tape that is made of a super strong film. Unlike ordinary double sided banner hem tape, there is no need to fold a hem in the media to reinforce banner edges. Just apply Banner Up Tabs on the corners, the simply strip the tape along the top and bottom edge of the back of the banner, then punch holes through the tape, tabs and media with a Banner Ups.

tesa® 8401 is a reactive heat activated film based on phenolic resin and nitrile rubber. This amber double sided tape has no backing. It is protected by a strong paper liner and can easily be slit and die cut. At room temperature this tape is not tacky. It is activated for pre-lamination by heat and starts to become tacky at 90°C/194°F. In a second application step heat and pressure is applied over a certain period of time.

Denso LT™ Tape is composed of a non-woven synthetic fabric carrier, fully impregnated with a neutral compound based on saturated petroleum and inert fillers. Denso LT™ Tapes are specifically designed for applications in cooler ambient temperatures. The tapes provide long-term corrosion prevention for pipes, flanges, valves, and related surfaces. Meets the NACE RP0375-2006 and AWWA C217 Standard. It is also CSA Z245.30 compliant.

Nova Films & Foils NF-1503 is a 3 mil clear polyester tape with a 3 mil pressure sensitive acrylic adhesive. The extra tacky adhesive and polyester are good for seaming materials together and/or general bonding. The heavy adhesive coatweight adheres well to rough or more porous substrates and has a high peel adhesion value.

3M™ Super Bond Film Tape 396 offers the thin caliper tensile strength of polyester and high immediate holding strength of rubber adhesive for creating butt splices on low surface energy materials such as polyethylene and other difficult-to-adhere-to surfaces. Works well on a wide variety of applications, including repairing and reinforcing high-wear areas of rip-stop nylon, holding polyethylene barrel liners in place, splicing large photographic acetate transparencies, and splicing polyester conveyor belts.

3M™ Repulpable Flatback Tape R3127 is a single-coated, repulpable tape. It features a kraft paper backing that can withstand the rigours of the paper manufacturing and converting. The backing is engineered for optimum strength for splicing, tabbing, and roll closing. It offers a high shear strength, high tack, clear, repulpable adhesive designed to bond to a wide variety of paper grades. The heat-resistant adhesive reduces splicing failure and performs in web applications at temperatures are high as 400°F/200°C.

Hystik 410 double-sided tape features a polyester backing and acrylic adhesive, providing strong bonding capabilities across a variety of surfaces, including paper, cardboard, and low surface energy (LSE) materials. Its flexibility allows it to conform to irregular shapes, making it ideal for flying splices in diverse industrial applications, whether applied manually or automatically. The tape is primarily utilized in industries such as manufacturing, packaging, and logistics, and serves key market segments including hardware, paint and construction, as well as self-service and big box retail.

General Formulations 850W is a 3.4 mil matte white vinyl coated with a removable acrylic pressure sensitive adhesive on a 78# clay-coated liner. The vinyl is formulated for ease of cutting while retaining resistance to common solvents encountered in typical spray paints and automotive finishes. In combination with the removable acrylic adhesive this product has the tack to withstand edge lifting in normal painting processes while removing cleanly after the paint has dried. The 78# bleached kraft liner provides an excellent base for plotter cut graphics and home craft applications.

3M™ Venture Tape™ Woven Patch Tape 442W is designed to match white woven insulation facings. It is capable of bonding quickly and strongly to a variety of hard-to-bond substrates. It is an acrylic tape composed of a high tack adhesive and a woven composition that has high elongation. Perfect for patching and seaming woven polyethylene and propylene materials due to its unique design that pairs a high tack adhesive with a bidirectional woven, acrylic copolymer film.
