3M 8959 transparent strong bidirectional mesh glass fiber tape high temperature industrial heavy binding fixed Filament Tape

Scotch® Filament Tape 8959 is a bi-directional specialty packaging tape reinforced with continuous glass yarns in both the longitudinal and transverse direction along with a biaxially oriented polypropylene backing. The polypropylene backing provides good abrasion, moisture and scuff resistance. The adhesive is specifically formulated to provide good adhesion to a wide variety of surfaces including metallic, plastic, and fiberboard.

• High cross-direction tensile strength.

• Allows printing and illustrations to be seen through the tape.

• Excellent shear and initial adhesion.

• Excellent aging.

• Protection of filaments and adhesive to provide longer package life.

• Performs better than paper backings when exposed to outdoor and humid environments.

• Resists center seams slitting in both machine and cross direction, increasing the performance of the tape.

• Excellent holding power under wide range of application conditions with minimum amount of tape.

• Hold with minimum rubdown, doesn’t require water to activate.
