Description
Avery Dennisonโข FT 8345 is a high-performance, double-coated polyester tape engineered for bonding to a wide variety of low surface energy (LSE) materials, while delivering superior shear strength, dimensional stability, and temperature resistance. With its high tack rubber adhesive on both sides of a durable polyester carrier, FT 8345 is ideal for demanding applications such as point-of-purchase (POP) displays, hang tabs, industrial packaging, and general industrial assembly.
This product features a super-calendered kraft release liner for smooth converting and easy processing. Designed to perform well under stress and elevated temperatures, FT 8345 provides a strong and reliable bond in high-load and high-shear conditions. It also excels in die-cutting, thanks to its excellent tensile strength and tear resistance.
Key Features
Double-coated construction with differential rubber adhesives
