monta 257F is a splicing tape developed to withstand the physical stress of the thermoforming process. It connects the ends of the web rolls over the seam, creating a reliable splice for the thermoforming process to follow.
Made from a rigid PVC backing that tolerates short exposure to elevated temperatures, the tape accepts the draw during the moulding process, which keeps its adhesive fully encapsulated.
Its red coloured backing ensures a consistent detection by photoelectronic sensors, automatically discarding the non-conformity blister pack that carries the red splicing tape.
It adheres to polar and non-polar substrates.
Application
- Splicing of web rolls for thermoforming blister packs
- Marking where automatic photoelectronic sensors are used
- Other tape applications requiring elevated temperature resistance short term
Properties
- Thermoformable tape with high flexibility
- Transparent natural rubber adhesive for high immediate tack and adhesion on thermoformable materials
- Rigid PVC carrier free from heavy metals and plasticisers, as per Reach & RoHS
- Resistant to moisture and diluted acids and alkalis
- Heat resistant: up to +80°C (175°F) short term after application at room temperature
- Low noise & easy unwinding properties, for manual or automated application
- Suitable for recycling
