tesa® 6917

Filmic double-sided bag sealing tape with differential adhesive

Product Features
  • Due to different adhesion values on each side, tesa® 6917 offers good removability on the covered adhesive side.
  • tesa® 6917 comes with fingerlift (extended liner) for conveniant liner removal.

Product description

tesa® 6917 has been designed for re-sealable filmic bags. It consists of a transparent double-sided PP-film with a differential adhesive system. The product can easily be cut with the hot wire systems of common bag machine producers.
