Various Tapes and Films Used in the Automotive Industry
Adhesive tapes used in automotive production are distinctly different from other industrial tapes, and they must be able to withstand a variety of stresses to meet specialized needs. Common types of automotive tapes include:
- Mounting foam tapes
- Automotive masking tape
- Double-side tapes
- Temporary protection tape
At NADCO, our die-cutting and converting capabilities allow us to create fully customized automotive tape and label solutions. With our knowledgeable team and high-quality tools, we can create the best possible solution for your needs. Depending on your requirements, we can die-cut automotive tapes in various shapes and sizes as well as add creases, perforations, and more.
We can work with a wide range of materials, regardless of the type of adhesive used. Materials we work with include fabrics, single and double-sided foam tape, foils, paper, rubber, vinyl and more. Whether you need strong adhesive tapes for mounting automotive components or dealership decals, we can work with you to create the best possible die-cut products.
What Are Some Common Applications
- Adhesive tapes are used in a wide range of applications in the automotive industry. Common applications include:
- Protective films and tapes with removable adhesives are often used to cover windows, mirrors, taillights, freshly painted or unpainted plastic/metal surfaces, and other areas that require protection from dirt, scratching, and damage that may occur during assembly, transport, and storage.
- Automotive masking tapes are often used to achieve clean lines during multi-color painting and finishing processes. These tapes must be able to withstand high temperatures and be able to conform to odd angles and shapes of a car.
- Mounting foam tapes can be used to secure molding and cladding to the body of a vehicle. Mounting foam tapes must be able to create durable, long-lasting bonds and withstand elements such as cold temperatures, UV exposure, and more.
- Vehicles interiors. Double-sided tapes and other mounting tapes are often used in vehicle interiors to hold and bond certain parts together. They can also be used to secure cables on rough or irregular interior surfaces
