Laminate polyester tape is a type of adhesive material used for many applications in the industrial and commercial sectors. It is often referred to as PET tape or Mylar tape and is available in a variety of grades, thicknesses, and adhesives depending on its intended use. Laminated polyester tape offers excellent performance when it comes to high temperature resistance, chemical resistance, moisture resistance, abrasion resistance, electrical insulation properties, thermal stability, accuracy and dimensional stability. 

Fastening Objects Securely

The most popular uses of laminated tape are for surface protection in the automotive industry; temporary repairs; fastening objects securely; and protecting electronic components from extreme temperatures. It can also be used in the packaging industry to provide extra strength and protection to packages. Polyester tape can be cut and applied easily as it is generally self-adhesive, although some applications may require an additional layer of adhesive. 

Perfect For Many Industrial Use Cases

The tapes are made from a combination of two layers of plastic film (one with a thin coating on the adhesive side) that are thermally bonded together. The top layer is generally made from polyethylene terephthalate (PET), while the bottom layer can be either PET or another form of plastic or paper. This combination provides great chemical and temperature resistance properties compared to other types of tapes, making it perfect for many industrial use cases.  Laminate type polyester tapes are not just strong and resilient, but also lightweight and flexible, making it easier to apply. The adhesive layer on the tape ensures that it will bond well to surfaces but can be easily removed without leaving behind a sticky residue. 

Ideal For Use in Harsh Environments

In addition, this type of tape is available in many different colors and widths to suit any application or environment. Overall, it is an excellent choice for a variety of applications where strength, durability, and flexibility are required. Its high temperature resistance makes it ideal for use in harsh environments such as automotive production lines, while its light weight and flexibility make it easy to work with for temporary repairs or fastening objects securely in place.
