Our application tape is made of high quality saturated flat paper coated with a specially formulated pressure sensitive adhesive. It is also widely known as pallet tape, turntable tape and paper lifting tape. Our tape is ideal for general use such as transfer decal and pre-space. It is suitable for all graphics applications and peels off quickly and easily with little or no residue.
What is Application Tape?
Application tape, also known as transfer tape or premask tape, is a pressure-sensitive tape used to transfer cut vinyl graphics and decals from their release liners to the application substrate. It is a paper or plastic film that can be placed on the top of the sticker or piece of vinyl to make the sticker easier to apply. Transfer tape allows the installer to see exactly where they are placing the sticker on the substrate.
Some common uses of application tape are: -
- To add stiffness to make application easier.
- To protect the film from stretching during application.
- To protect the graphic image from scratching during application.
Properties of application tape
- Our application tape is extremely inexpensive compared to sealants and provides an incredible number of uses per roll.
- It can be applied as a die-cut to the exact area needed, further minimizing waste.
- This tape is uniform in thickness, giving a precise bond.
- It is instantaneous, which means no waiting for drying or chemical reaction.
- Pressure-sensitive adhesives function as a result of three separate properties: Adhesion, Cohesion, and Tack. These three properties balance one another, meaning that it is impossible to have a tape with 100% of each.
Faqs
- Premask – covers the entire panel of a graphic film and protects during storage, transport, and handling.
- Pre-spacing Tape – used to mask cut graphics.
- Transfer Tape – tape for heat transfer graphics commonly used for custom apparel.
There are also different types of application tapes based on their material, such as:
- Paper tape – has a paper backing and can be more conformable and breathable.
- Clear or transparent tape – has a clear backing and can be more visible and durable.
Application tapes are used to transfer cut vinyl graphics and printed films from their release liners to the application substrate.
You need to consider the type of graphic, the release liner, the application surface, and the storage and transport conditions.
