Patco 8100SW Heavy Duty Polyurethane Protective Selfwound Tape, Clear, 3 in x 108 ft

The Patco 8100SW Heavy Duty Polyurethane Protective Selfwound Tape is a versatile and robust solution designed to provide superior surface protection in a wide range of demanding environments. Whether you need long-term or short-term protection, this clear, selfwound tape offers exceptional durability and abrasion resistance, making it ideal for various industrial applications, including automotive, marine, and metal cleaning operations. Its transparency ensures that protected surfaces remain visible for easy inspection, while its strong yet repositionable adhesive provides reliable performance across a broad temperature range.

• Highly Elastic and Tough: The Patco 8100SW tape is engineered with a polyurethane film that is both highly elastic and extremely tough, offering outstanding protection against abrasion and wear. This makes it suitable for environments where surfaces are exposed to heavy use or potential damage.
• Transparent and Abrasion Resistant: The tape's transparent design allows for visible inspection of the surfaces it protects, making it ideal for applications where maintaining the appearance of the surface is crucial. Its abrasion resistance ensures that the protected areas remain intact even under harsh conditions.
• Repositionable and Pressure Sensitive: The tape features a pressure-sensitive adhesive that is easy to apply and reposition as needed. This allows for precise application and ensures that the tape stays securely in place, even on curved or irregular surfaces.
• High and Low Temperature Performance: Designed to perform in both high and low temperatures, the Patco 8100SW tape is suitable for a variety of environments, ensuring consistent protection regardless of temperature fluctuations.
• Extra Thickness for Stability: The tape's extra thickness provides stay-flat properties and dimensional stability, ensuring that it remains smooth and conformable throughout its use. This is particularly beneficial for applications requiring long-term protection.
• Poly Backed Paper: The tape is backed with poly backed paper, which protects the adhesive layer and makes it easier to handle and apply, especially in wider widths. This feature also enhances the tape's suitability for die cutting, allowing for customized applications.

Recommended Uses: The Patco 8100SW Heavy Duty Polyurethane Protective Selfwound Tape is perfect for heavy-duty surface protection, whether for short or long-term applications. It serves as an excellent protective film for shot peening in metal cleaning operations, ensuring surfaces remain intact during the process. Additionally, it is ideal for anti-squeak, vibration, and sound damping in automotive and marine OEM applications, as well as for protecting air foil and ground effects panels on racing cars and trucks, where durability and clear visibility are essential.

Usage and Maintenance: To achieve the best results, apply the Patco 8100SW tape to clean and dry surfaces. The tape can be pressed firmly into place and is ready to use immediately. Its pressure-sensitive adhesive allows for easy repositioning during application. When it is no longer needed, the tape can be removed by peeling it back slowly, leaving the surface free of residue. Store the tape in a cool, dry environment to preserve its adhesive properties and extend its shelf life.
