High-Bonding PET Film Tapes
-- Steady & Reliable Manufacturer --
Clear and Durable Tapes for Structural Film Bonding
High-Bonding PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) Film Tapes are specialized double-sided or single-sided adhesive solutions that utilize a thin, dimensionally stable polyester film carrier coated with a high-tack, high-performance acrylic or solvent-free adhesive. These tapes are engineered to deliver exceptional shear and peel strength, making them suitable for structural bonding applications where components must be permanently fixed with minimal visibility and high load-bearing capacity. The PET film ensures the adhesive layer remains consistent, resists moisture, UV light, and plasticizer migration from vinyl or plastic substrates, providing a durable, long-term bond solution that often replaces traditional liquid adhesives or mechanical fasteners.
- Dimensional Stability: PET carrier resists stretching or shrinkage under temperature variation.
- High Cohesive Strength: Adhesive resists internal splitting (shear) under continuous load.
- Thin Profile: Provides a virtually invisible bond line, critical for aesthetic assemblies.
Why Choose Us
Technical Precision and Long-Term Stability
- Superior UV and Temperature Resistance: The acrylic adhesive system and PET film backing are inherently resistant to UV degradation and perform reliably across a wide service temperature range (typically −40∘C to 120∘C), ensuring long-term bond integrity.
- Resistance to Plasticizer Migration: The advanced adhesive formulation resists the corrosive effects of plasticizers found in soft vinyl or PVC, preventing the bond from weakening, lifting, or becoming gummy over time.
- Clean Die-Cutting for Automated Assembly: The stability of the PET carrier, often combined with a clean-releasing PET or CCK liner, allows for high-precision rotary die-cutting into intricate shapes for robotic component placement.
- Cost-Effective OEM Alternative: SXT's vertical integration enables us to provide high-specification PET film tapes that serve as reliable, cost-effective alternatives to established global brands, supporting mass-market product margins.

Our factory-direct model provides access to these high-specification materials at a cost structure that supports volume production of consumer electronics, automotive interiors, and displays.
Usage Guide
High-Bonding Tapes: Film vs. Foam vs. Transfer
| Tape Type | Adhesive Carrier | Gap Filling Capability | Primary Function |
| PET Film Tape | Thin Polyester Film | Minimal (Best for flat, smooth surfaces) | High shear/peel strength, thin, clear bond line |
| VHB-Type Foam Tape | Thick Acrylic Foam | Excellent (Conforms to irregular surfaces) | Structural bonding, stress dissipation, vibration dampening |
| Adhesive Transfer Tape | No Carrier (Pure Adhesive Film) | Minimal (Good for flexible materials) | Flexible bonding, fast application of adhesive layer |
| Fiber Reinforced Tape | Fiberglass/Cloth | Minimal | Mechanical strength, tear resistance |
Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- Q: Can high-bonding PET tape be used to bond low surface energy (LSE) plastics?
- A: Standard acrylic tapes may struggle with LSE plastics (e.g., HDPE, PP). For these materials, we offer specialized PET tapes coated with high-performance LSE acrylic adhesives, specifically engineered for greater wet-out and ultimate adhesion on these challenging substrates.
- Q: How does the thickness of the adhesive layer affect the bonding performance?
- A: A thicker adhesive layer (e.g., 100 \mum vs. 50 \mum) generally provides better wet-out on slightly rough or textured surfaces and offers slightly higher peel strength. A thinner layer is preferred for aesthetic applications requiring minimal bond line visibility.
- Q: What is the primary difference between a PET film tape and a foam tape for structural bonding?
- A: PET film tapes are thin and rigid, ideal for high static shear loads on flat, smooth surfaces. Foam tapes are thicker and viscoelastic, offering better gap filling, stress dissipation, and vibration dampening properties, suitable for bonding textured or mismatched substrates.
