Terms used in the production process

Bearing base. The main component of the tape, designed for applying glue. Fabric, film, metal foil, paper, etc. are used as the base.

Base Coating. Thin coating of the base, which prevents spontaneous unwinding of the self-adhesive tape.

Crepe paper. Paper with a finely folded surface, which has increased plasticity and extensibility.

Double-sided self-adhesive tape. Tape coated with adhesive on both sides.

Gap. Distance between layers of rolled adhesive tape.

Surface. Prepared surface on which the self-adhesive tape will be applied.

Plasticity (conformity). The ability of an adhesive tape to adhere snugly to uneven or rough surfaces.

Stickiness. An indicator that characterizes the strength of adhesion to the underlying surface. Displays the initial adhesion of the adhesive, at which it does not slip on the surface.

Telescoping. Layer-by-layer sliding of the tape along the twist line, turning the roll of tape into a funnel or extendable telescope.

Unwind force. The force required to pull the tape from the roll.
