Tesa 51571 Translucent Double Sided Cloth Tape, 0.16 mm Thick, 13N/cm 9N/cm, Non-Woven Backing, 19mm x 50 m

This double-sided cloth tape provides a low-profile bonding solution for industrial assembly and fabrication tasks. It uses a non-woven backing and a synthetic rubber adhesive to create a translucent bond suitable for applications where a discreet, flexible joint is required. The product performs across a range of temperatures and offers a balance of adhesion and tear resistance for use in production and maintenance environments.

• High adhesion level delivers secure immediate bonding
• Heat tolerance supports processes up to 80°C
• Maintains tack at low temperatures down to 0°C
• Thin profile of 0.16mm minimises joint build-up
• Tensile strength of 9 N/cm resists peel and shear forces
• Non-woven backing provides conformability on uneven surfaces

• Suitable for attaching textiles and fabric-based components in automation
• Ideal for fixing foam and gasket materials during assembly
• Used for temporary or permanent joins in electronic housings
• Can be used for cable bundling where low-profile tape is required
• Suitable for bonding components in electrical enclosures subject to moderate heat

The adhesive is synthetic rubber, which gives strong initial tack on common substrates including fabric, foam and many plastics while allowing quick handling in production.

The non-woven cloth backing provides flexibility to conform to irregular shapes and distribute stress to reduce shear-related failures.

Its operating range includes exposure up to 80°C, so short-term thermal cycles within this limit will retain adhesion and mechanical integrity.

The tape maintains functional adhesion down to 0°C, though repeated thermal cycling near this lower limit may gradually reduce long-term bond strength.
