Avery Dennison Performance Tapes has introduced a new pressure-sensitive double-sided tissue tape product for the foam insulation market. Avery Dennison FT 5212 tape delivers ease of conversion and handling coupled with versatile, effective applied performance in a broad variety of day-to-day bonding and holding scenarios in automotive sound and vibration deadening, as well as insulation in building and construction works, and for heavy-duty industrial machinery.

Convertability and applied performance
Avery Dennison FT 5212 tape offers benefits for both converters/fabricators and for end users. It combines a modified acrylic emulsion adhesive on a tissue carrier with a heavyweight PPP liner – a construction that meets converters’ needs for an efficient multi-purpose ‘workhorse’ tape at an appropriate price level. It converts and diecuts cleanly and accurately -- an attribute conferred by the layflat qualities of the moisture-stable 120 micron PPP liner. Minimum order quantities are low, and lead times short.

In end use, Avery Dennison FT 5212 tape offers versatile adhesive performance, coupled with the ease of handling and liner removal delivered by the extra weight of the liner. Even in moisture-laden environments, the converted product does not wrinkle..

Manufacturing cost issues
At a time when rising raw material prices are making it difficult for manufacturers in the automotive, building and construction, and nameplate markets to maintain manufacturing costs, Avery Dennison FT 5212 adhesive brings a new option that, says the company, offers a good price/performance ratio for both end-user OEMs and converters. The adhesive completes the global Avery Dennison product portfolio for the foam and gasket markets, complementing the company’s established specialty tape solutions for critical applications.
