Patco 585 PE Dissimilar Metal Tape is a specialized tape designed to provide long-lasting protection in industrial applications such as truck assembly and machine construction. This tape serves as a permanent barrier between dissimilar metals, preventing electrolytic corrosion that can occur when metals with different electrochemical properties come into contact. The combination of a tough, conformable LDPE film and a durable acrylic adhesive ensures reliable performance in both indoor and outdoor environments. Patco 585 is available in multiple colors and sizes, making it versatile for various industrial uses.
- LDPE Film Construction: The LDPE film is tough yet highly conformable, allowing the tape to adhere securely to uneven or irregular surfaces. It also serves as an excellent insulator, preventing direct contact between metals and reducing the risk of electrolytic corrosion. Additionally, the film provides good resistance to UV exposure and moisture, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.
- UV and Moisture Resistance: Designed to perform in harsh environments, Patco 585 protects against moisture and UV degradation, ensuring that the tape retains its protective properties over long periods of time.
- Acrylic Adhesive: The acrylic adhesive used in Patco 585 offers excellent bonding strength, ensuring a secure and long-lasting application. It provides reliable protection and adhesion in both indoor and outdoor settings, maintaining its bond strength even in challenging conditions.
- Long-Term Protection: This tape is engineered for long-term use, offering durable protection against electrolytic corrosion and maintaining its insulating properties over time. It ensures that metal components in truck assembly and machine construction remain safely separated to prevent corrosion.
Usage and Maintenance: For optimal performance, apply Patco 585 to clean, dry surfaces to ensure strong adhesion. This tape is ideal for use in truck assembly and machine construction, where dissimilar metals need to be insulated from one another to prevent corrosion. Its conformability and long-term bonding strength make it a reliable choice for applications requiring a durable and permanent protective barrier.
