Nonrepulpable Splicing Tape

Outstanding performance is achieved with ARclad® brand nonrepulpable splicing tapes developed specifically for the advanced processes that present difficult splicing conditions found in coating, laminating, printing and converting.

These tapes provide superior adhesion to "difficult-to-adhere-to" surfaces such as plastic films, polycoated paper and boards, and other low-energy surfaces and include other performance attributes:

  • Superior heat resistance to withstand numerous drying and cooling cycles.
  • Outstanding strength to tolerate varying web tensions.
  • Aggressive adhesive can substantially reduce the amount of tape used, as well as time and labor costs.
  • Tapes can eliminate the need for protective clothing and other safety measures, as compared to glue.
  • Adhesion to a wide variety of substrates at high line speeds.
  • Consistent performance, which promotes machine efficiency while reducing raw material waste and cleanup costs.
  • Thin caliper tapes provide excellent adhesion and conformability.

Typical Applications:
 - Splicing in Extrusion Coating, Laminating, Flexible Packaging, 
    Aseptic Packaging, Silicone & Barrier Coating Operations
 - Splicing in Flexographic & Rotogravure Printing Pressroom 
    Operations
 - Products Are Available that Contain Only Raw Materials
    that Comply with the US FDA’s Regulations Regarding 
    Indirect Food Contact
