The Industry’s Best Compressible Glazing Tape
Capital Tape offers a full line of spacer tape products and medium to light density PVC foams for making seals that are available in roll form or high volume die-cut shapes. And, of course, you can always choose the thickness and width that works best for you.
Capital Tape’s PVC Foam Tape also works well for cushioning, vibration dampening, weather stripping and sound deadening applications. Highly conformable and easy to compress but tougher than the polyethylene foams.
PVC Foams are inherently resistant to fire, ultraviolet rays, most chemicals, acids, and solvents. When compressed 30% or more these products completely seal out air, moisture, light, and dust. Medium-density PVC foams are 15 lbs. per cubic foot in density. These products offer flexibility and conformability with added strength and wear resistance. PVC Foams are a cost effective substitute for polyurethane foam substrates for gasket and sealing applications.
Standard or Non-Standard Compressible Glazing Tape
These tapes provide an excellent combination of light density flexibility with heavy density strength. Aggressive, pressure-sensitive adhesive on one side of a medium density, closed cell foam that are silicone compatible.
These foams offer excellent resistance to weather, fungi, and oxidation, and exceed fire rating standards.
