General Purpose Cross Filament Tape
tesa® 4591 is a general purpose bidirectional filament tape based on glass filaments laminated to polyester film. The tape
is used for industrial bundling, palletizing, and fixing applications. tesa® 4591 combines strong longitudinal tensile strength
with very low elongation. The synthetic rubber adhesive system ensures a secure bond to various substrates, even to non-polar
surfaces like PE and PP. tesa® 4591 features a very high tack and a short dwell time before reaching final adhesive
power. The tape also provides excellent adhesion to a variety of corrugated and solid board surfaces. tesa® 4591 is tear resistant.
Main Application
• tesa® 4591 is a bidirectional filament tape used for a range of industrial purposes, including:
• Bundling and palletizing
• Heavy-duty carton sealing
• Transport securing
• Fixing
• End-tabbing
