Some applications need a strong fixing during use but should not leave adhesive behind when the job is finished. This is where Perm Peel tape offers a useful approach. STIKON's S-FIX Perm Peel tape is a double-sided tape designed with different adhesive characteristics on either side of its PET carrier. The idea behind a perm/peel tape is fairly straightforward. One side provides a permanent bond to the item being mounted, while the other side is designed to hold the item securely but allow it to be removed later. STIKON's S-FIX removable mounting tape uses this principle for applications such as temporary signage and displays. Two Adhesive Sides, Two Different Jobs The permanent side of STIKON's S-FIX tape is intended to bond to materials such as paper, card, board and high-energy plastics. The removable side has a lower grip and is designed to hold against surfaces including glass, ABS and PVC. This combination can be useful where a sign or display needs to remai...

When two surfaces need to be joined, the adhesive tape needs to suit the materials as well as the application. Self adhesive foam tape can be useful where a combination of bonding, cushioning, sealing or insulation is required. STIKON offers a wide selection of industrial-grade foam tapes developed for different applications and working conditions. Foam tape is available with adhesive on one or both sides, depending on how it will be used. STIKON's range includes different foam types, densities, thicknesses and adhesive formulations, so there is no single tape that suits every job. Choosing the right product depends on the surface, the required bond and the conditions in which the tape will be used. Choosing the Right Foam Tape One of the advantages of using self adhesive foam tape is its ability to work across surfaces that may have slight variations or irregularities. For example, STIKON's S-Mount range includes closed-cell PE foam tapes with acrylic adhesive systems. ...
