Adhesive and Industrial Tape
Adhesive and industrial tape is material with an adhesive on one or both sides. Adhesive tape is used to secure items together. Duct and cloth tape have a water-resistant adhesive on a strong, abrasion-resistant cloth material and are used for sealing ducts, securing cable, and making repairs. Filament and strapping tape have fibers that help prevent the tape from snapping when pulled tight. Film tape is used to protect surfaces and splice paper and other items. Foam tape provides an insulating barrier between surfaces. Foil tape has a metal backing and a strong adhesive. It conforms to curves and uneven surfaces and is reflective, UV resistant, and thermally conductive. Transfer tape is a double-sided, pressure-sensitive adhesive with a removable paper liner that is used to join two materials.
