APPLICATION TECHNIQUES:

An extensive line of hand-held tape dispensers is available. Application of Tartan™ Utility Filament Tape 8930 is most easily accomplished at room temperature. At lower temperatures approaching 32°F (0°C), the adhesive becomes firm. Once applied the Tartan utility filament tape 8930 performs well throughout the normal temperature ranges typically encountered by packaged products in shipping and storage environments.

STORAGE CONDITIONS:

Store in a clean, dry place. Temperature of 40-80°F (4-26°C) and 40 to 50% relative humidity are recommended. Rotate your stock.
