400 Series
R-428 PDF	60# SCK	1.1 mil 400 Series	0.5 mil Clear PET	1.1 mil 400 Series	General-purpose rubber tape. Ideal for smooth surfaces where heavy adhesive thickness is not required. Good balance of economy and performance.
R-431 PDF	53# SCK	0.8 mil 400 Series	0.5 mil Clear PET	0.8 mil 400 Series	General-purpose rubber tape. Recommended for less demanding applications and smooth surfaces. Tighter release for small die-cut pieces, narrow rolls, and converting.
R-435 PDF	60# SCK	2.6 mil 400 Series	0.5 mil Clear PET	2.6 mil 400 Series	General-purpose rubber tape. Very thick adhesive coating ideal for rough, irregular, or porous surfaces.
R-437	54# SCK	1.4 mil 400 Series	0.5 mil Clear PET	1.6 mil 400 Series	General-purpose rubber tape. The thicker adhesive coating is ideal for rougher surface applications.
R-442 PDF	60# SCK	1.1 mil 400 Series	0.5 mil Clear PET	1.3 mil 400 Series	General-purpose rubber tape. The thicker adhesive coating on the airside is designed for rougher surface applications.
R-449 PDF	60# SCK	2.1 mil 400 Series	0.5 mil Clear PET	1.2 mil 400 Series	Permanent pressure-sensitive double-coated general-purpose rubber tape with excellent peel and shear performance. Airside provides a thicker glue coating for rougher surface applications. Typically used for bonding to paper, metal, EPDM, polyisoprene, plastics, abrasive pads, and most low or unplasticized substrates. Polyester carrier provides excellent dimensional stability for die-cutting applications.
600 Series
A-610 PDF	76# PCK	2.0 mil 600 Series	1.0 mil Tissue	2.0 mil  600 Series	With quick initial tack and good dimensional stability, the double-coated tissue tape is excellent for bonding various difficult materials and surfaces, such as foams and LSE plastics. The double-sided tissue tape provides more conformability and stability than a transfer tape. The Low VOC acrylic adhesive withstands higher temperatures and meets the JIS-A 1901 standard for 13 substances of concern.
800 Series
A-801 PDF	60# SCK	2.2 mil 800 Series	0.5 mil Clear PET	1.2 mil  800 Series	Versatile permanent acrylic tape. Excellent adhesive to plasticized PVC, papers, metals, and LSE plastics. Aggressive peel and shear performance. Additional liner side adhesive provides good bonding to rough surfaces. Low VOC adhesive that resists yellowing and is ideal for outdoor applications. Perfect for laminating and converting applications. Standard tighter release liner for trouble-free converting.

200 Series
R-202 PDF	76# PCK	2.0 mil 200 Series	Permanent rubber adhesive with aggressive initial tack and adhesion is excellent for many substrates, including ether and ester polyurethane and polyethylene foams. This finger-lift transfer tape is more conformable to a wide range of irregular and even substrates due to a carrier's absence.
R-204 PDF	76# PCK	4.0 mil 200 Series	Aggressive permanent rubber adhesive with excellent initial tack and adhesion is suitable for many substrates, including ether and ester polyurethane and polyethylene foams. Due to the absence of a carrier, this finger-lift transfer tape is more conformable to a wide range of irregular and even substrates.
400 Series
R-438 PDF	60# SCK	3.0 mil 400 Series	Recommended for rough, irregular, or porous surfaces where a heavy adhesive thickness is required. The glue is acid-free.
800 Series
A-800 PDF	60# SCK	2.0 mil 800 Series	Versatile permanent acrylic transfer tape. Stiff adhesive for good die-cutting performance. Excellent adhesive to plasticized PVCs, metals, and LSE plastics. Very conformable to irregular surfaces. Great outdoor performance. The adhesive is high shear with a moderate peel—excellent high-temperature performance.
