Key Features
Material and Adhesive System
tesa® 4289 is made from tensilised polypropylene (TPP) and is coated with a natural rubber adhesive system. This combination provides a strong initial tack and ensures the tape adheres well to both polar and non-polar surfaces.
Tensile Strength and Elongation
The tape exhibits very high tensile strength, making it suitable for heavy-duty applications. The tensile strength is reported to be around 420 N/cm (239.83 lbs/in) in some sources, while others report it as 375 N/cm (214.13 lbs/in). The elongation at break is consistently noted to be 35%, indicating low elongation and high durability.
Resistance and Durability
tesa® 4289 is highly resistant to both heat and cold, making it suitable for various environmental conditions. Additionally, it is abrasion-resistant, which enhances its durability in demanding applications.
Removability and Discoloration
The tape can be removed without leaving any residue, and it does not cause discoloration on the surfaces it is applied to.
Adhesion
The adhesion to steel is reported to be around 2.86 lbs/in (5 N/cm) in some sources, while others report it as 2.57 lbs/in (4.5 N/cm). This strong adhesion ensures the tape stays in place during use.
Specifications
Dimensions and Thickness
The tape is available in various dimensions, including widths of 1/2 inch and 2 inches, and lengths of 60 yards and 360 yards. The thickness is generally around 5.8 to 5.91 mils (150 µm).
Color and Appearance
tesa® 4289 is available in transparent and yellow colors, catering to different aesthetic and functional requirements.
Environmental Considerations
The tape is solvent-free, making it a more environmentally friendly option.
Applications
tesa® 4289 is versatile and can be used in various applications, including:
- Bundling heavy steel pipes
- Palletizing
- End tabbing of light gauge rolled steel and finished metals
- Surface protection of glass
- Packaging and shipping.
Conclusion
tesa® 4289 Heavy Duty Tensiled Strapping Tape is a robust and versatile product suitable for a wide range of industrial applications. Its high tensile strength, low elongation, and resistance to environmental factors make it a reliable choice for heavy-duty strapping needs. The tape’s residue-free removability and non-discoloring properties further enhance its usability across different surfaces and conditions.
