Duraco Offers New LSE (Low Surface Energy) Tape Products

Nov 11th 2020

Duraco is announcing the launch of a brand-new LSE adhesive system to meet customer demand and help overcome challenges by providing design versatility when working with hard-to-bond surfaces. The new LSE adhesive tape systems are suitable for LSE substrates including LSE plastics, print UV inks, powder coated metals and UV coatings.

The new LSE adhesive system will provide the following advantages:

  • Durable adhesive that quickly bonds on contact to LSE plastics and substrates
  • Alternative to mechanical fasteners and liquid adhesives, no tools required
  • Reduces cost and assembly time, increases production, and improves operation processes
  • Provides uniform thickness and gap filling properties
  • Fast and easy-to use bonding method that requires no preparation or use of hazardous chemicals

“It was a priority to develop a broad line of tape that works on low surface energy applications which expands the capabilities for our customers to be creative using our LSE products. Providing this new adhesive system will allow our customers to design to their fullest potential” says Greg Zyck, Duraco Product Manager.

Duraco will be initially launching this new adhesive system as derivatives of three legendary products; Twin Stick® LSE, Dubl Kote® LSE, and DK Film® LSE. These upgraded adhesive tapes support thermal expansion and contraction and allow for a high initial adhesion with LSE surfaces. Duraco has developed an adhesive for a variety of our tape product categories that better bonds these materials with minimal effort and without having to alter or prepare the surface before application. The new tapes are available in a variety of thicknesses and sizes for numerous applications.

Twin Stick LSE is available in pre-cut pieces for ease of application and is perfect for the following applications: Permanent and temporary displays, injection molded plastics, signage, corrugate and powder coated materials.

Dubl Kote LSE is available in continuous rolls for automatic application and for bonding long edges. This adhesive is perfect for plastic extrusions, permanent and temporary displays, plastic fasteners, wire management cables and textured surface bonding.

DK Film LSE is versatile and available in a variety of formats including continuous rolls and pieces on a roll. This adhesive works best on extrusions, signage, displays, plastic clips, packaging and more!
