MACTAC: Double-Coated Tape

     This company recently announced the addition of a permanent/removable double-coated tape to its MACbond™ double-coated tapes product line. The new product, IB5121-72, offers performance for applications that require a high initial tack and permanent bond to one surface and clean removal or repositionability from another surface.

    The double-coated tape features the company’s 1.2-mil XT high-performance rubber adhesive on the unwind side of a 0.5-mil PET carrier and a 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.”
