Filament Reinforced Tapes
-- Steady & Reliable Manufacturer --
Detailed Product Description
Filament reinforced tapes, as a category, include any tape utilizing continuous high-strength fibers embedded within a polymer backing, serving to enhance tear, tensile, and impact strength beyond that of the base film. The reinforcement typically consists of fiberglass (higher strength) or polyester (higher elasticity) filaments that are strategically oriented (unidirectional or bi-directional) depending on the required performance vectors.
These tapes are primarily utilized for load containment, bundling, and high-security packaging where standard BOPP tapes are inadequate. The high-cohesion adhesive (usually synthetic rubber) is necessary to ensure the reinforced structure remains adhered to the substrate under extreme dynamic stress. The tape's function is to distribute stress across the width of the tape, making the containment exceptionally resistant to bursting, tearing, and shifting.
Why Choose Us
Advantages and Core Features
- Engineered Load Containment: The embedded filaments provide structural integrity that resists the forces trying to open the box or break the bundle, offering a significantly higher failure threshold than non-reinforced tapes.
- Flexible but Non-Stretching: Unlike elastic strapping, the high modulus of the filaments ensures the tape holds the load rigidly without significant stretch, maintaining the tight bundle integrity throughout the journey.
- Bi-Directional Shear Resistance: Cross-weave filament tapes offer protection against both longitudinal (tension) and lateral (shear) forces, making them ideal for securing heavy loads within a container to prevent side-shift.
- Efficient Automation Compatibility: The consistent thickness and release characteristics of the film backing make it suitable for seamless, high-speed application on automated carton sealing and strapping equipment.
- Material Versatility: Offered in both fiberglass (for maximum strength) and polyester (for greater elongation/shock absorption) to specifically match the customer's operational and material handling requirements.
Core Features
Application Areas
- Heavy-Duty Box Closure: Sealing boxes containing motors, automotive parts, and machinery.
- Load Stabilizing: Cross-strapping pallets and bundles to prevent lateral movement during transportation.
- T-Shaping and L-Clip Reinforcement: Applying to the corners and edges of cartons to prevent bursting and crushing damage.
- Roll and Coil End Tabbing: Securing the final outer wraps of large rolls of steel, paper, or film to prevent unwinding under high tension.
- Temporary Fixturing: Holding structural components together during the curing or bonding process in industrial assembly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
- Q: What is the benefit of Bi-directional over Unidirectional filament tape?
- A: Unidirectional tape resists forces primarily in the length (tensile). Bi-directional (cross-weave) tape resists forces in both the length and width, offering superior resistance to bursting or shearing from the side, making it ideal for pallet unitization.
- Q: Is the tape sensitive to changes in temperature or humidity?
- A: The PP/PET film carrier and synthetic rubber adhesive are highly resistant to humidity and moderate temperature swings, ensuring the load remains secure even in non-climate-controlled storage or shipping containers.
- Q: How is the adhesion maintained on dusty or recycled cartons?
- A: We utilize high-coat weight, aggressive synthetic rubber adhesives that are specifically formulated to "wet out" the fibers of rough or recycled corrugated board, ensuring a robust, permanent bond despite surface inconsistencies.
- Q: Can these tapes be hand-dispensed for low-volume packing?
- A: Yes, despite their high strength, the rolls are designed to dispense smoothly via specialized hand-held dispensers, making them practical for both large and small packing operations.
