Shurtape AP-15 Label Protection Tape is a protection-grade film tape with an acrylic adhesive. It is used to protect shipping labels and other printed surfaces against damage from the elements and rough handling. Shurtape AP 15 has excellent tack for quick adhesion; high clarity; and a non-yellowing adhesive that offers high resistance to ultra-violet (UV) radiation.
NOTES: Sizes shipped will typically be the tape industry standard metric-cut sizes, i.e. 24mm for each 1 inch of nominal tape width ordered (rolls are approximately 5% narrower than the nominal size). This product's actual size is 96mm x 66m. As with any adhesive tape product it is always the user's responsibility to determine that the product is suitable for their intended use; e.g. if you want to remove a product cleanly from a specific type of substrate please test on an inconspicuous area first.
