tesa Introduces New Foam Tapes for Industrial Applications

Feb 10, 2016

Today company officials of tesa tape, inc., an affiliate of tesa SE, global leader in the manufacture and supply of pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes, announced an expansion to its line of bonding tapes by unveiling two new products designed for indoor bonding applications. These new products join the company’s expansive line of more than 80 industrial grade double-sided tapes designed for temporary and permanent bonding applications.

Meet the Products
Building on its strong reputation as a supplier of high-performance bonding tapes, representatives of tesa are pleased to introduce two new foam-based double-sided tapes developed specifically for climate-controlled bonding and mounting applications. These new products are:

• tesa® 64956 – 32 mils / 800 microns
• tesa® 64962 – 63 mils / 1600 microns

Both tapes are built on a durable polyethylene foam material, lending them enhanced bonding power relative to their thickness levels. The tried-and-true foam material also offers additional benefits, such as: 1) expansion and contraction abilities due to modest variations in indoor temperature and humidity levels, and 2) conformance to varying or slightly uneven surfaces, thus ensuring a total surface bond.

Complementing the time-tested polyethylene foam of both new products is a specially-formulated rubber adhesive system which has been optimized for secure bonding to a variety of differing surfaces and materials commonly found in indoor environments, including hard-to-stick-to surfaces and surfaces with low surface energy.

Ideal Applications
Both tesa® 64956 and tesa® 64962 are optimally designed for interior bonding applications such as:

• bonding plastic extrusions
• mounting retail shelf label systems
• securing cable aesthetic and management systems
• constructing point-of-sale displays
• mounting indoor signs
• temporary bonding
