4116

Single Coated Foam Tape

A 62.5 mil. urethane foam tape featuring A-25 acrylic adhesive on a silicone treated liner used for coding, sealing and identification applications. 4116 is a natural white, firm, high density open cell foam tape with pressure sensitive adhesive on one side. The acrylic adhesive offers high initial quick stick to many types of surfaces, along with excellent shear strength and high temperature performance. The adhesive is protected by the thick, silicone liner. Urethane foam, series 4100, are firm, rigid open-cell tapes that offer excellent cushioning characteristics while allowing air or gas to pass through the open cells. Skip slitting is also used for roll stability on these narrow sizes. Urethane tapes may turn yellow when exposed to light, however, the physical performance is not effected. 4116 tape adheres to a variety of substrates, including latex painted wood, lacquered wood, enameled steel, glass, aluminum, stainless steel, acrylic, ABS and PVC (non-plasticized). The tape adhesion is typically satisfactory within 20 minutes and continues to build with additional time. The solvent/ fuel resistant test consists of visual observations of tape bonded to steel panels and immersed totally in solvent/ fuel for 24 hours.

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.
