GENERAL INFORMATION

The GS-Series of strip adhesives are made up of an unsupported SBR pressure sensitive adhesive, specially coated by MACtac using a patented, proprietary process and wound on a 60# densified kraft release liner. The GS series is also available with a 2 mil polyester liner as a custom construction. The adhesive used in the series provides very aggressive tack and peel adhesion along with superior shear strength. This adhesive bonds to a wide variety of meterials including low energy surfaces such as polyethylene and polypropylene. The standard thicknesses of 5 to 50 mils provides the mass needed to establish secure bonds to uneven or irregular surfaces. The strip adhesives are available in a number of narrow width sizes ranging from 1/4" to 11 1/2". Typically provided as a single or double strip of adhesive on the liner.

The physical properties listed are typical values and are not to be considered as specifications. Our suggestions for use are based on tests we believe to be reliable. However, the purchaser must carry out their own tests to determine the suitability of the product for their internal use. Information is given in good faith, but without warranty.
It is essential, as with all pressure-sensitive tapes, that the surface to which the tape is applied be clean, dry and free of grease and oil.
Shelf life from date of manufacture is based on the product being stored at 70°F(21°C) / 50% relative humidity out of direct sunlight.
Specification compliance is dynamic and should only be used as a general guide. Always confirm that the tape you are interested in currently complies with all specification requirements. Please verify that the product number that you select is available in the proper size and color to meet your specification.
