Product description
tesa® 4831 is a silicone-free masking tape made of a PET/non-woven backing and an acrylic adhesive. It is especially designed for highly demanding applications such as prebond masking, composite manufacturing and metal sandwich construction.
Thanks to its robust PET/non-woven backing and acrylic adhesive, it can be exposed to high pressure and temperatures of up to 180 °C. It is silicone-free, which makes a contamination of the surfaces with silicone adhesive impossible. Subsequent process steps such as window gluing or coating can therefore be carried out with maximum reliability avoiding time consuming cleaning.
