Transparent & Colored Polyester Film Tapes

General Information
A 1.9 mil. polyester film tape that can generally be used for splicing and applications where chemical resistance and/ or clean removal is necessary. Tape is not recommended to exceed 12 months of storage under normal storage conditions at 70°F and 50% relative humidity. Prolonged exposure to sunlight or hot caustics will cause backing to become brittle and lose tensile strength. 850 transparent tape is qualified to meet federal spec.
