Bleached Flatback Carton Sealing Tape

538 is a 8.2 mil flatback paper, carton sealing tape. This tape is designed as a permanent, nonremovable product. It has excellent moisture-resistance and a very tough and aggressive adhesive with very quick stick. This product works well even when the application temperatures are extreme (less than 40°F, or greater than 120°F), or when used on cartons made with recycled corrugated.
