TESA® DOUBLE-SIDED TAPES

tesa® 51966 – Sustainable High-Performance Double-Sided Tape for Industrial Applications
tesa® 51966 is a transparent, double-sided mounting tape designed to meet the demands of converters and tape specialists. Made with a 90% post-consumer recycled PET backing and a highly tackified acrylic adhesive, it combines sustainability with superior performance.
This tape delivers excellent adhesion, high initial tack, and strong shear strength, even on low surface energy materials. Its ability to withstand challenging environmental conditions, such as humidity, UV light, and temperatures up to 130°C (for limited periods), makes it ideal for long-term industrial mounting applications.
Sustainability Note:
tesa® 51966 is verified under the UL Environmental Claim Validation Program, containing 90% recycled PET backing and an average of 8% post-consumer recycled content.
