tesa® 4990 Butt-Splicing Tape
350 µm single-sided modified-acrylic adhesive tape
Product description
tesa® 4990 is a single-sided adhesive tape using a modified-acrylic adhesive and a black PET-cloth backing. The acrylic adhesive combines fast dwelling performance in combination with excellent resistance against elevated temperature. tesa® 4990 shows excellent tensile resistance for high tension processes as well. tesa® 4990 is offering in-line curing of the adhesive to compensate the general effect of adhesive softening at high temperature. This results in a stable adhesive strength across a wide temperature range.
Features
- Shear resistant, acrylic adhesive
- Tensile resistant PET-fabric backing
- Easy handling and application
Benefits
- Suitable for high temperature processes - resisting up to 250°C
- High tear-resistance for high tension processes
- Secure compensation of web tension in high-tension web processe - avoids web breaks and wrinkles
- No cure time - Eliminates cure time for faster production
- No machinery investment - Utilize existing machinery to implement more efficient production
