What is Surface Protection Tape ?

Surface Protection Tape (SPT) consists of 40 micron LDPE film covered with an acrylic emulsion adhesive. Self-Adhesive SPT provides exceptional damage and scratch protection. The tape has an adjustable peel force, leaves no adhesive residue, and is both weather and ultraviolet light resistant.

Surface Protection Tape is appropriate for acrylic sheet, aluminium profiles, stainless steel sheets, galvanised steel coils, and foam boards, etc.
