What is Surface Protection Tape ?

Surface Protection Tape (SPT) is a clear 40 micron LDPE film with an acrylic emulsion adhesive coating. SPT is self-adhesive and provides exceptional scratch and damage resistance. The peel force of the tape may be adjusted, and there is no adhesive residue.  The tape adheres well to both glass and steel surfaces, leaving no residues. 

Any rough surface can be protected using Surface Protection Tape with a high tack. SPT’s versatility allows it to be used in a wide range of sectors.
