Tesa 4970 White Double Sided Plastic Tape, 13.6N/cm 38N/cm, Polyvinyl Chloride Backing, 25mm x 50 m

Tesa Double Sided Plastic Tape, 25mm Width, 0.225mm Thickness - 04970-00151-00

This double‑sided plastic tape provides a secure bonding solution for mounting and assembly tasks across industrial environments. It combines a PVC backing with a tackified acrylic adhesive to create a thin, low‑profile bond suitable for fixed joins where a discreet, Durable connection is required. Its formulation performs reliably across a wide temperature band, making it appropriate for indoor plant rooms and controlled outdoor enclosures.

Features and Benefits:

• Tensile strength 38 N/cm delivers robust shear resistance
  Adhesion strength 13.6 N/cm ensures Rapid initial grab
  Thickness 0.225mm gives minimal build‑up for neat joints
  Temperature range -40 to 70 °C maintains bond in varied climates
  White colour provides a clean appearance for visible joins
  Backing of PVC resists creep under static load

Applications

• Suitable for bonding trim and panels in automation cabinets
  Ideal for securing components within electronic assemblies
  Used for mounting switches and small devices in electrical racks
  Can be used for temporary fixturing during mechanical assembly
  Suitable for attaching nameplates and foam gaskets in production

How should I store rolls to preserve performance?

Keep rolls flat in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight to prevent adhesive softening
recommended storage temperatures are within typical workshop conditions.

How does the tape behave under continuous shear load?

The PVC backing combined with the tackified acrylic adhesive offers good shear resistance, resisting creep when loaded statically at room temperature.

Is surface preparation necessary for best results?

Surfaces should be clean, dry and free of contaminants such as oils or dust
light abrasion on smooth plastics can improve mechanical anchoring of the adhesive.

Can it be used where colour matching matters?

The white finish provides a discreet aesthetic for visible bonds where a light‑coloured tape is acceptable.

What cutting and application methods are recommended for precision work?

Use Sharp knives or precision rollers to cut clean edges, and apply with firm pressure or a roller to promote full contact and adhesion.
