Product Description
May, 2013
Scotch ? Filament Tape 880 is a high performance tape reinforced with continuous,
polyester yarn filaments that give the tape high tensile strength, high impact resistance
and high cut resistance. The polypropylene film backing provides excellent abrasion
and moisture resistance. The aggressive packaging grade adhesive is specifically
formulated to provide an excellent balance of high initial adhesion and long term
holding power to fiberboard, “non-oily” metals, printed and painted surfaces.
