Tapes and Adhesives

Silicone adhesive system tapes for powder coating applications, circuit board and electronics manufacturing, splicing, and other manufacturing challenges. The clarity, high tack and consistency of these tapes are unsurpassed in the industry. Coating thickness range from .0005” to .003” on polyester and polyimide backings in a wide range of colors.

Silicone transfer adhesive (.002”) for application without primers or surface preparation. High initial tack and unmatched long term adhesion with optical clarity and exceptional temperature and chemical resistance.

Acrylic transfer adhesives for optical, graphics, nameplate and high performance industrial applications. Specialty products include custom formulations for pH neutral photo mounting, adhesion to oil contaminated surfaces, plasticizer resistant adhesives for flexible PVC, and UV resistant formulations. Liners include kraft, PE coated kraft, double linered products and PET.

Heat and solvent activated dry film adhesives in polyester, polyamide, nitrile-phenolic, co-polymer and urethane formulations. A wide range of activation temperatures and applications.

Protective films: very low-tack, removable polyester films to protect aluminum, stainless steel, nameplates, instrument panels, and automotive and aerospace components during production, storage and handling. These films are also exceptional carriers for parts during die-cutting.

Printable label stock in PVC, polyester and polyimide in a variety of adhesive formulations for both graphic and extreme temperature applications such as circuit board assembly.

Skin contact adhesives coated on a wide range of substrates (urethane film, PVC and urethane foams . . . ) for wound care and other medical applications.

Adhesive coated foams (one or both sides) and double-sided films, including hi/lo and gasket manufacturing adhesive products.

Plastic Films

Polyester Films from DuPont / ICI: Mylar™ and Melinex™ rolls and sheet stock to .014” for graphics and industrial applications. Huge variety of formulations and pre-treatments, including high-reflective white.

Polycarbonate films from Bayer in a wide variety of finishes and gauges. Bayer is now the world’s only major manufacturer of UL rated polycarbonate film in standard formulations. Special products include a PBT/Polycarbonate blend, PC with a Tedlar laminate, light diffusing and static-dissipative polycarbonate films.

Flame Retardant Polycarbonate (UL VTM-0)

Hard Coated Polyester, Polycarbonate and PETG films in stock to enhance scratch resistance, chemical resistance and supply optical display properties. We offer the widest selection of gloss levels, and the hardcoats are both highly embossable and accept multiple passes of UV printing.

Rigid Vinyl, HIPS, PETG and other lower cost sheet products.

Laminates

These laminates are manufactured using heat and pressure to produce an incredibly high strength bond with a typical interlayer of only .0002”. An adhesive layer can be applied for pressure-sensitive requirements. Many of the more common laminates are either in stock in master rolls, or can be quickly manufactured from a variety of stock films and foils, including:

  • Aluminum / Polyester
  • Copper / Polyester
  • Copper / Kapton®
  • Multi-layer laminates of polymers, metal foils, and heat seal layers

Applications for these products include RF/EMI shielding in a number of industries; cable wrap, membrane switch, electronics, bag manufacturing. While we supply roll and sheet forms of these products, we can to recommend a qualified source for your die-cut or fabricated part.
