Mactac Industrial Tapes announces the addition of an innovative permanent/removable double-coated tape to its MACbond™ double-coated tapes product line.
The new product – IB5121-72 – offers exceptional performance for applications that require a high initial tack and permanent bond to one surface and clean removal or repositionability from another surface.
To achieve this unique application solution, MACbond IB5121-72 features Mactac’s aggressive 1.2-mil XT high performance rubber adhesive on the unwind side of a 0.5-mil PET carrier and a unique 1.0-mil low-tack removable acrylic adhesive on the liner side. The dual-performance adhesive is protected by a two-side silicone-coated 72# bleached poly-coated, dimensionally stable liner.
“We designed IB5121-72 specifically because our customers requested a high-performing double-coated tape that could meet their specialized dual-purpose permanent/removable needs,” said Janet Page, Senior Marketing Manager, Mactac Performance Adhesives. “Not only is this new product cost-effective for our customers, it truly showcases the breadth and depth of Mactac’s innovative 100% solids adhesive technology.”
MACbond IB5121-72 is ideal for fastening foam and low-surface energy materials, paper and cardboard, and most felts and fabrics to surfaces that require clean removal, such as glass, plastics and metal. With excellent handling characteristics and superior die-cutting capabilities, it is designed for the following applications:
• Protective packaging
• Point-of-purchase displays
• Shelf marking
• Promotional displays
• Credit card mailers
• Foam gasketing
It is also an excellent option for re-closable bags for parts assembly or work-in-process aids.
MACbond IB5121-72 is available in 54-inch rolls and features a 2-year shelf life.
