tesafix 4900 Transfer Adhesive Tape, Wound with Adhesive Facing Outward, 33 m x 12 mm, Transparent
tesafix® 4900 is a highly transparent, high-performance transfer adhesive tape without a backing for precise and durable bonding of films, papers, and lightweight displays.
Description
tesafix® 4900 is a transfer adhesive applied to release paper without an intermediate backing and features an age-resistant acrylate adhesive with very high initial tack. The tape is highly transparent and is ideal for discreet bonding applications, such as posters, lightweight displays, or continuous bonding of films and papers—particularly during on-the-fly roll changes. The adhesive is temperature-resistant (up to 200 °C for short periods, up to 80 °C for extended periods), highly resistant to chemicals and UV light, and has good moisture resistance. This makes tesafix® 4900 a reliable solution for demanding, long-lasting bonds in a variety of applications.
