Automotive Industry Tapes
Adhesives specifically for automotive production are different from other industrial adhesives, as the automotive tape is expected to perform different tasks than standard industrial tapes. Not only are these industrial tapes put under very different stresses, but they also have to meet very specialized needs. From masking tapes required to withstand high pressures to double-coated foam adhesives meant to form durable, long-lasting, and rivetless bonds, automotive tapes are designed to be some of the toughest, strongest adhesives around.
Protective Applications:
Adhesives may be used as protective coverings during transportation to prevent scratching or damage during the move.
- ST-445 — Clear poly protective film, removable adhesive.
Great for covering windshields, windows, rearview mirrors, side view mirrors, taillights, and anything else that needs protecting from scratching during transport
Masking Applications:
Automotive industry masking tape is heavily specialized, as it must be able to resist much higher temperatures than normal masking tape. It must also conform to the odd shapes and angles of a car, and hold a stronger bond to the vehicle than other types of tapes will allow.
- ST-6 — Premium grade, high-adhesion masking tape for industrial and automotive painting applications.
Tailored to the painting side of the automotive industry, our ST-6 is specifically designed for automotive painting applications.
