Polyester, or PET (polyethylene terephthalate) adhesive tape is a versatile pressure-sensitive tape that is suitable for a variety of applications. The tape can be used in electronics, automotive, and many other industries, and offers a good balance between performance and price.
Typical application examples include masking and protection for epoxy powder coating and splicing. Depending on the application, some features to look for are thinness and temperature resistance.
Single-sided polyester adhesive tape is the technical product of choice for these types of applications. The tape is highly conformable and offers superior bonding to a wide variety of treated papers, films, and foils.
The most common application is splicing and masking, particularly in high-temperature applications. The polyester backing resists damage and doesn't mark tools or parts, and the silicone adhesive system is super quick-stick.
Other perks of polyester include a low-profile adhesive that resists oozing and flow. It is also plasticizer tolerant and can be used to splice materials such as PVC, vinyl products, synthetic leather, banner stock, and sheet or roll goods.
PET adhesive tape is a polyester film backing with a pressure-sensitive silicone adhesive system. It is a no/low residue tape designed for splicing and masking applications where high initial adhesion is required, but no residue after removal.
China Heat Resistant Tape offers a wide range of tapes, including PET adhesive tape, which are available in a range of widths, lengths, and thicknesses. Contact us to learn more about the best fit for your application.
