Which tape is water resistant?   The tape backing is inherently water resistant so the tape can withstand some exposure to moisture for a short period of time.

What factors should consider when applying the tape to get the best results? There are  three factors that can affect the performance of the bond: 1. The pressure applied to the surface to form the bond 2. The ambient temperature and environmental conditions when the tape is applied 3. The cleanliness of the surface to which the tape is being applied When testing tapes for a new application it is vital to ensure that these three issues are addressed. Therefore, if the bond fails, one can determine with a degree of confidence that one has selected an inappropriate product. Should one encounter a problem with an application where a product has performed satisfactorily in the past, it is normal to immediately assume that the tape is at fault. Whilst this…

The tape has failed, what should I do? The natural presumption when a tape fails in an application is that the tape must be faulty, Although this may be the case, this is normally the least likely answer. The most likely reasons for tape failure in order of probability are: For an existing application (tape has been used successfully before for some time) 1. The insufficient pressure was applied 2. The ambient conditions were inappropriate, normally this means either too cool (the majority of tapes need to be applied, ideally, between 15° & 25° C) or there was too much moisture in the atmosphere (close to Dew Point or very high relative humidity) 3. The surfaces were not clean or have become contaminated with something that compromises the bond strength…

Why do I need to test the tape? Since every application is quite different it is impossible for us to "guarantee" a product for an application. In determining whether you need to conduct tests you need to consider such things as: 1. The direct consequences of the tape applications failing 2. The consequential costs in terms of time, money and damaged reputation to fix the situation should the tape fail 3. Has the product been used successfully for similar applications before 4. In situations where time prevents the luxury of conducting tests, it is important that one fully assesses the likely suitability for the application and then addresses all the issues that could compromise the performance of the tape. Hence, we gladly provide samples and specifications for you to test and evaluate…

What Tape Should I Use? In order to achieve cost efficiency and meet your application requirements. We strongly recommend you may need the help from us with specialist knowledge of tapes and other areas, in order that we can offer the best advice to you. Whilst we can recommend products we can never "guarantee" them due to there are just too many variables that can affect the performance of a tape. That is why we are always happy to provide samples and specifications to allow you to carry out tests to ensure that any product meets your application requirements. Undoubtedly cost may be a consideration and only you can determine what product is "acceptable".

What benefits distinguish TERAOKA Tape from other tapes? More Economical – usually 8-10 applications per roll of tape Durable – average usage allows a long period of time  per application
