9573
***Discontinued*** Double Coated Tape
**Discontinued**A 10.0 mil. double coated tape featuring unplasticized polyvinyl chloride backing with high-tack 360 acrylic adhesive used for trim, heavy duty materials, heavy weight and roller blind applications. The acrylic adhesive is a medium-firm, pressure-sensitive with key characteristics which include a combination of high grab and initial adhesion with excellent static shear holding power. The adhesive shows excellent resistance to plasticizer migration, UV and humidity resistance and has the resistance to natural aging associated with acrylic adhesives. The thick adhesive layers also offer a good bond to rough surfaces, such as Melamine and fabrics. 9573 tape also has a film carrier, which adds dimensional stability to foams and other substrates. The carrier provides easier handling during slitting and die-cutting. To apply strips of 9573 tape, use 3M's dispenser selection (for example): manual dispensers- C25, H10, H128, M712, M742, M744, P52 and P56/ definite length dispensers- M82, M87, M96, M910 and M920/ Semiautomatic dispensers- S625 w/ attachment, T646 and T653.
