46 Protective/Plastic Tapes ABRASIVES SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE SINGLE SIDED TAPES PACKAGING ADHESIVES DOUBLE COATED TAPES Polyimide Tape, High specification Electrical Masking Tape • Translucent polyimide film backed silicone adhesive • Extremely low electrostatic discharge properties • Flame retardant and chemical resistant • Virtually eliminates circuit board degradation due to electrostatic discharge • High performance at high temperatures Applications Mask for circuit boards during wave solder or solder dip process. Release surface in fabrication of parts cured at elevated temperatures. Polyethylene UHMW Tape UHMW Polyethylene is a thermoplastic that has a unique combination of properties which makes it ideal for tough impact wear or sliding applications. • Abrasion resistant tape • Resistant to puncturing, gouging etc • Coated with an aggressive rubber resin adhesive Applications Conveyor flat guide rails. Discharge chutes. Glue sealing plates. Rotor blades. Spray booth liners. Tank and bin liners. Drawer and cabinet slides. Feed and grain chutes. Packing table tops. Litho Tape A UPVC film tape, which is optically transparent and photographically opaque. These tapes resist the effects of changing atmospheric conditions, and can provide sharper visual definition. They are frequently used in the printing industry alongside splicing tapes. • Transparency allows accurate positioning • Firm adhesive which is long ageing & resistant to softening Applications Graphic Arts Industry - Opaquing, stripping, and edging. Printing Industry - Splicing. Electrostatic Powder Coating Tapes Single coated tapes with a pressure sensitive adhesive. They are chemical resistant and can easily withstand temperatures up to 240°C which are typically used for curing epoxy and polyester based powder coatings. No elaborate surface preparation is necessary before applying tapes, just a thoroughly clean surface and firm roller pressure. After baking and cooling the tape is easily removed in one piece, leaving a sharp paint edge with no adhesive residue.
