Banish the blaze with flame-retardant tapes

tesa® flameXtinct 45001 (opens in a new window or tab) is commonly used for demanding, permanent applications such as elevator mountings, aircraft cabin interiors, and train assemblies. The tape consists of an acrylic adhesive and flame-retardant PE-foam with excellent bonding strength. It is extremely light weight compared to fire-resistant adhesive solutions.

Main applications:

- Stiffener bar mounting e.g. in elevator walls and landing doors (building industry)
- Fastening of lightweight components (e.g. marine and special vehicles)
- Bonding in the passenger area of trains

Our thin double-sided flame-retardant adhesive tapes are available with flexible PET film (tesa® 58372 (opens in a new window or tab)) or non-woven (tesa® 58375 (opens in a new window or tab)) backing. This makes them suitable for laminating applications with flame retardant requirements. With product thicknesses from 50 μm to 200 μm, these high-performance acrylic adhesives are the optimal choice for a variety of applications needing low carrier thicknesses. And if you are looking for a tape specially developed for EV battery mounting and automotive fire protection, then consider tesa® 58373 (opens in a new window or tab).

Part of the high-performance flameXtinct assortment, tesa® flameXtinct 45051 (opens in a new window or tab) consists of a proprietary flame-retardant acrylic adhesive and PET-film backing with excellent flexibility and converting properties. In addition, our tesa® flameXtinct 45020 (opens in a new window or tab) removable carpet tape is compliant with FAR 25.853 (a) app. F part 1 and therefore fulfills the highest industry standards. 

Main applications:

- Various mounting applications in the EV battery system (e-mobility market)
- General mounting, lamination and converting application with flame retardant properties

tesa® flameXtinct 45063 (opens in a new window or tab) and tesa® flameXtinct 45065 (opens in a new window or tab) are flame-retardant acrylic core tapes for permanent bonding applications both indoors and outdoors. The acrylic core allows for the compensation of thermal elongation and good adhesion to various substrates including metals, powder coated surfaces, glass, and plastics They are a popular solution for mounting applications in various industries, including windows and doors, elevators, transportation, marine, and automotive.

Main applications:

- Stiffener bar mounting e.g. in elevator walls and landing doors (building industry)
- Bonding of decoration profiles and kick plates e.g. appliance industry
- Long-term bonding of decorative and constructive elements for e.g. train, marine or special vehicle applications

Flame-retardant tapes have numerous applications across industries requiring strict fire safety standards. They are used in vehicles, aircraft, trains, or on ships. And these industrial safety tapes are also used in construction and manufacturing to provide reliable fire protection

Fire-resistant tapes are used for general mounting, lamination, and converting applications where flame retardant properties are needed. In the transport sector, they help fasten lightweight wall cladding, mirrors, hatch covers, as well as decorative panels. They also provide a strong bond for commonly used wool, polyamide, and mixed-fiber carpets in aircraft and train passenger compartments. During maintenance and overhaul, the tape is easily removable and leaves no residues on the floor panels, which makes for an efficient and uncomplicated process.

In construction, flame-retardant tapes are used to mount stiffener bars on elevator landing doors. These bars prevent deformation of the doors and add stability. And the doors themselves play a crucial part in helping to stop flames spreading from one floor to the next through the elevator shaft. So, of course, all materials need to comply with fire regulations – and that includes the mounting tape.

Flame-retardant tapes are ideal for various automotive fire protection applications, including mounting display and operating elements, as well as EV battery cell-to-cell bonding. They are also a popular choice in the household appliance industry for bonding decorative profiles, front panels, and kick plates.
