Adhere with Acrylic
This tape features a pressure sensitive acrylic adhesive that bonds immediately on contact to a variety of substrates. Once bonded it provides high, secure adhesion for extended periods. This acrylic adhesive maintains bond strength through a variety of climate and temperature changes for long term use. And when needed, the tape removes easily.
