Scotch® Filament Tape 897

High performance. Polypropylene backing reinforced with glass filaments. Typical 170 lb/inch width tensile strength for light- to medium-duty bundling, reinforcing, and palletizing. Good initial and long-term adhesion with good shear strength.

Polypropylene backing provides excellent resistance to nicks, abrasion, moisture, and scuffing. Glass filaments reinforce tape for reliable strength. Specially formulated rubber resin adhesive bonds with minimum rubdown. Good initial and long-term adhesion with good shear strength.
