Grip tapes developed
for industry needs

Grip tapes are adhesive tapes that have a textured backing to enhance traction and are used in manufacturing, converting and printing processes in the industry. Depending on the intended application, grippy tapes are available with different combinations of adhesives and backings for general industrial, harsh environment, or specialist use.

Grip tape substrates may be embossed or coated with mineral particles. They are usually applied to tools or manufacturing equipment for improved handling and better grip. Specialty grip tapes give reliable non-slip adhesion on difficult to bond surfaces and are used for roller wrapping in manufacturing and printing.

If you are looking for tapes providing grip to ensure safety and prevent humans from slipping check our broad range of anti-slip tapes.

Features

Benefit from our experience in grip tape development

Our decades of experience as manufacturers of roller wrapping tapes have made our grip tapes a benchmark. They support a variety of manufacturing, converting, and printing processes that utilize roller systems and process materials such as films, textiles, paper, and more.

Ever striving for the highest quality and optimal solutions, the well-proven tape design has been improved even further over the years, ensuring maximum process reliability and efficiency.

The tape design allows for clean and accurate application, while at the same time ensuring easy removal. Applied on the roller, the tape will securely keep its position, even at elevated temperatures.

Our range of grip tapes include multipurpose products for general industrial use and specialty products for specific applications.

Our specialist grip tapes can be used in manufacturing and printing processes that make use of roller systems to transfer materials. These grip tapes are ideal for roller wrapping in the processing of film, textiles, and paper.

They help to maintain consistency and reduce the number of material defects as the materials are transferred through the automated process. This also prevents damage from friction, improving the longevity of the rollers and reducing maintenance downtime.

Application step 1: Wrap the tape once around the roller at the desired angle and mark the point where the end of the roll meets the second turn of the tape.

2 / 4

Application step 2: Put the tape on a flat surface and cut it diagonally from the end of the roll to the marked point of the tape.

3 / 4

Application step 3: Remove the liner and start applying the tape, starting from the edge of the roller.

4 / 4

Application step 4: Keep on wrapping the roller with the tape at even angles, leaving no gaps in between the layers.

FAQ

Grip tapes for industry: FAQs

Grip tape is used to increase traction and grip on surfaces to improve handling and reduce slipping of materials. It is widely used in general manufacturing, warehousing, and printing. 

How long a grip tape applied on a roller lasts depends on machine speeds, material processed, and environmental conditions like temperature influences. Please contact our technical experts to learn more.

Some of our industrial grip tapes have residue-free removal and can be taken off easily. However, this will depend on the type of tape and what it is used for. Check the specification for details.

Our grip tapes repel a variety of substances like adhesives or inks. Water specifically is usually not requested. Please contact our our technical experts to learn more.

Replace industrial grip tape when it starts to show signs of wear, such as losing its rough texture, or becoming damaged or torn. These factors may comprise the tape’s ability to provide a secure grip. Although tesa® grip tape is robust, it is important to check it regularly for any signs of wear or damage and to replace it immediately.
