Tape is something we often use in our daily life. Since it was invented, there have been many types of tape, such as transparent tape, high temperature tape, double-sided tape, insulation tape, and special tape, etc. In fact, it can also be divided according to the base material used, such as cloth-based tape, cotton paper tape, masking tape, PET tape, BOPP tape, etc.
In order to meet the needs of industrial production and life, people have invented filament tape. Fiber tape is an adhesive tape product made of polyester film as the base material, reinforced glass fiber thread or polyester fiber braid, and coated with pressure-sensitive adhesive.
Fiber tape can be divided into two types according to the arrangement of glass fibers: striped fiber tape and grid fiber tape. At the same time, there are also single-sided fiber tape and double-sided fiber tape with adhesive applied on one or both sides. In addition, according to specific application scenarios, fiber tape manufacturers will choose materials and adhesives with different viscosity and peel strength to meet customers' various strength and viscosity requirements.
Product features and advantages of fiber tape:
1. It has strong breaking strength and will not break easily;
2. It has good moisture resistance and will not lose its adhesiveness when it encounters water like ordinary tape;
3. It has high tensile strength and deformation resistance, does not deteriorate, and does not foam;
4. It has high viscosity and can bond a wide range of materials;
5. It is easy to operate and can be used with hand-held tools to quickly improve work efficiency.
The service life of fiber tape is relatively long, but basic maintenance is also required:
1. Fiber tape should be stored in the warehouse to prevent sun and rain; it should not come into contact with acid, alkali, oil and organic solvents, keep it clean and dry, and be 1m away from the device. The room temperature is between -15℃ and 40℃.
2. It is best to use a crane when loading and unloading the conveyor belt, and then use a rigging with a crossbeam to lift it steadily to prevent damage to the belt edge. Avoid rough loading and unloading, which will cause loose rolls and sleeves.
3. Fiber tape should be placed in rolls, not folded, and should be turned over once a quarter if stored for too long.
4. Fiber tapes of different types, specifications, strengths, and numbers of layers should not be connected (grouped) together for use.
5. Hot vulcanized adhesive bonding should be used as much as possible for conveyor belt joints to improve stability and maintain a high effective strength.
6. The types and specifications of rubber fiber belts should be reasonably selected according to application requirements and specific conditions.
7. The conveyor roller diameter of the conveyor and the minimum pulley diameter of the conveyor belt should meet relevant requirements. When the conveyor is equipped with baffles and cleaning devices, the wear of the fiber tape should be avoided.
8. Do not let the fiber tape snake or creep. Keep the drag roller and vertical roller flexible and the tension should be moderate.
9. When the fiber tape is found to be damaged in the early stage during use, the cause should be found and repaired in time to prevent adverse effects.
10. Cleanliness is the basic condition for the fiber tape to maintain good operation. External substances will affect the belt eccentricity, tension difference, and even breakage.
