Bidirectional filament tape has reinforcing fibres along both the length and width of its backing. Adhesive and backing materials depend on the product design.
What does the reinforcement do?
Reinforcement in two directions allows the tape to be considered for stresses in different orientations. Verify actual strength, adhesion and temperature values in the selected product data sheet.
Choosing an application
For carton reinforcement and suitable package restraint, trial the tape with the actual surface, load and shipping conditions. Tape must not replace lifting equipment.
