Reinforced tape is a strong bonding solution designed to connect various surfaces, components, and materials with high adhesion, serving as a replacement for rivets, screws, bolts, welding, and more.
Reinforced tape opens up a new world of possibilities for structural bonding, connecting different materials and surfaces to replace rivets, screws, bolts, and welding, while also enhancing structural design, aesthetics, construction productivity, durability, and overall reliability of product connections. Additionally, reinforced tape, as its name suggests, has the ability to reinforce, strengthen, dampen vibrations, and stabilize materials effectively.
Uses of reinforced tape
For decades, we’ve relied almost exclusively on methods like screws, rivets, bolts, welding, etc., with many drawbacks including:
Mechanical screws, bolts, and nuts add significant weight.
Rivets penetrate materials unevenly, creating stress points prone to damage.
Welding is time-consuming and interrupts assembly processes.
Liquid and spray adhesives are not always optimal, requiring time and complexity.
Reinforced tape serves as a replacement for all adhesive, connection, bonding, and welding methods, often more efficiently than traditional screws, bolts, rivets, or welding. With extremely high adhesion, excellent reinforcement capabilities, reinforced tape offers a versatile solution for various applications.

Reinforced tape advantages
Reinforced tape is revolutionizing the way we bond and connect everything. Here are some outstanding advantages:
- Ultra-lightweight: Reinforced tape with Acrylic foam adhesive is extremely lightweight, available in various thicknesses and widths to suit different materials during installation.
- High performance: Over 10 times stronger than rivets, reinforced tape surpasses traditional bonding solutions, ensuring uniform bonding across surfaces.
- No visible traces: Many bonding solutions create uneven surfaces, compromising aesthetics. Reinforced tape leaves no visible traces, making connections nearly invisible.
- Safe to use: Reinforced tape is extremely safe, requiring no additional harsh chemicals for support.
- Quick installation: Reinforced tape is applied and installed just like regular tape, simplifying the process. This significantly reduces installation time.
- Flexibility: The structure of reinforced tape allows for easy application on any surface, with customizable shapes and sizes. Installers can easily cut the tape to desired shapes.
Additionally, here are some other noteworthy advantages:
- Long-lasting: Reinforced tape is designed and engineered for long-term durability, ensuring no loosening or weakening over time in bonded areas.
- High durability: With resistance to heat, UV light, moisture, and solvents, reinforced tape withstands harsh environmental conditions, reducing metal and material corrosion.
- Non-corrosive: Unlike traditional methods like screws and mechanical welds, reinforced tape does not corrode over time, eliminating the need for maintenance.
- Time-saving: Installation of reinforced tape is simple, following proper procedures and thorough surface cleaning, with no need for additional materials or methods. Therefore, reinforced tape is widely used in assembly processes, saving both time and money.
- Cost-effective: Considering the aforementioned advantages, reinforced tape serves as an all-in-one solution for bonding, connecting, welding, and fastening, without the need for additional complex methods. This optimizes costs effectively.
Reinforced tape also provides users with a distinct bonding advantage through its seamless integration with various surfaces and materials.
Reinforced tape can be applied to various materials
- Tiles, concrete, wood.
- Composite materials.
- Foam and glass fibers.

Environments where strong adhesive tape can be used
The durability and flexibility of strong adhesive tape are remarkable. You can use the tape indoors and outdoors, and in various environmental conditions:
- Chemicals: withstands common solvents (acetone, ammonia, isopropyl alcohol, oils, etc.).
- Moisture: operates in high humidity environments.
- Wet conditions: resists both fresh and saltwater, even when submerged.
- Temperature: functions in environments from -40°C to 100°C.
- UV light: protects against natural and artificial ultraviolet rays.
Applications of strong adhesive tape
Due to its excellent properties, strong adhesive tape is widely used in many industries.
Automotive & Transportation Industry
Tough adhesive tape is widely used in the automotive industry because its adhesive system provides sensitive bonding with high pressure (PSA or pressure sensitive adhesive). The solid core of the tough adhesive tape provides extremely high bonding strength while maintaining enough flexibility to withstand various rates of expansion and contraction.
Different types of tough adhesive tape offer different bonding solutions and can bond plastic to metal, glass to metal, or metal to metal. Applications in vehicles include attaching and bonding interior and exterior decorations and attaching automotive components. In addition to providing an accurate and clean bonding system, tough adhesive tape absorbs vibrations and helps improve fuel efficiency and reduce weight, thus enhancing assembly and manufacturing processes.
Electronics
The rapid development in the electronics industry, including increasingly compact and lightweight systems, has been greatly supported by the advancement of tough adhesive tape technology.
The manufacturing process is simplified, and product designers have more creative freedom due to the many benefits of using tough adhesive tape compared to cumbersome traditional fixed methods.
Televisions, smartphones, tablets, etc., all benefit from using tough adhesive tape. With the ability to create tight bonds, ensuring prevention of water and dust infiltration into electronic devices, and using tough adhesive tape to attach metal and plastic components, eliminating the need for additional large parts to cover bulky fasteners, it helps maximize aesthetic appeal.
Signage
Mechanical screws are often used to hold signs together, but they are prone to rust and damage in harsh conditions. High-performance adhesive tapes provide cost-effective and quick installation solutions for the signage industry by eliminating the need for labor-intensive activities like drilling and hole punching. With fewer structural weak points and evenly distributed stress from the adhesive layer, tough adhesive tape offers a stronger and more reliable bond than any other solution.
Tough adhesive tape can be used both indoors and outdoors due to its UV resistance, ensuring longevity without the need for repair or replacement.
Elevators
With its reinforcement, vibration resistance, toughness, high bonding strength, and durability over time, tough adhesive tape is applied to attach stiffening bars for elevator doors, control panels, and iron frames in elevator ceilings. Learn more about this solution:
