Double Coated Polyethylene Foam Tapes...
2 OSHA COLORS:
White and Black
A closed cell crosslinked polyethylene foam tape coated on both sides with a high performance solvent based acrylic adhesive or rubber based adhesive. Excellent quick-stick sealing with high shear properties for efficient operation and secure bonding. Good resistance to humidity, mild acids, oil and grease. Excellent conformability and compressibiliti. Adheres well to textured and irregular surfaces. Can be easily die-cut. 3" neutral core/cartons. Available in white or black.
Applications:
used for mounting nameplates, signs, small die cast parts, mirrors, maps, etc. Used for sound and vibration dampening in business machines, industrial equipment, electronic component packaging and glass panel mounts, seals, gaskets, etc. In general, the acrylic adhesive system is recommended for outdoor applications due to its higher temperature, UV, weather, chemical and plasticizer resistance. The rubber adhesive system is recommended for high shear demands as its quick grab nature is deal for immediate load applications (mirrors) and for textured surfaces. The rubber system also exhibits hiher adhesion to low-energy surfaces (some plastics, films).

Mill:
- A "mil" is a unit of thickness equal to one thousandth of an inch.
- To convert mil to inches take mil & divide by 1000.
- Thus, a 2 mil bag would be .002 inches thick.
- Example: Ex: 2 mil/1000 =.002 inches
