Product description

tesa® 4434 is comprised of a strong, flat paper backing and natural rubber adhesive system. The tape features excellent adhesiveness, a high tack, and good quick stick. The tape also offers excellent plottability and paint anchorage. The strong, thick, and resistant paper backing has been developed for manual cutting. Due to its extreme resistance, tesa® 4434 is mainly used as a protective material for grinding in workshops, and base pads on tables during die-cutting in the shoe, leather, and metal-working industries, and other protection works. The tape is also ideal as stencil material for sandblasting applications.
