Tesa 51970 Transparent Double Sided Plastic Tape, 13.5N/cm 50N/cm, Polypropylene Backing, 38mm x 50 m

This double-sided plastic tape is designed for permanent bonding tasks across automation, electronics, electrical and mechanical workflows. It provides a transparent, low-profile join for mounting, fastening and assembly where a discreet adhesive layer is required. The tape combines a polypropylene backing with a tackified acrylic adhesive to perform across a wide temperature span and in demanding production or maintenance environments.

• Tensile strength 50N/cm delivers secure shear load bearing
• Adhesion 13.5N/cm ensures firm initial and long-term bond
• Operates from -40°C to 130°C for varied thermal conditions
• Thickness 0.22mm provides minimal build-up for tight tolerances
• Tackified acrylic adhesive offers strong wetting on many substrates

• Suitable for bonding electronic modules to chassis panels
• Ideal for fixing trim and nameplates in control cabinets
• Used for mounting sensors and small components in automation rigs
• Can be used for splicing thin foils and insulating films in assembly
• Used with metal and plastic substrates in electrical enclosures

The polypropylene backing yields a stable, non-elastic carrier that eases alignment and prevents stretching during positioning.

The tackified acrylic formulation provides good adhesion to polar and many non-polar substrates but surface preparation improves bond on oily surfaces.

Within the specified -40°C to 130°C range the adhesive maintains cohesive strength and the backing retains dimensional stability.

With a tensile capability of 50N/cm the tape resists shear displacement, supporting joints subject to lateral forces.

The product is intended for permanent bonds
