Film tape is adhesive tape made with plastic film backing. The backing supports the tape and influences flexibility, strength and stretch, while the adhesive controls bonding, holding and removal on the intended surface.
An adhesive film tape may use PE, PET, PVC, MOPP or BOPP film. Performance depends on the complete construction, including film thickness, adhesive system and surface treatment. Choose plastic film tape by application and verified product data rather than by material name or color alone.
Explore our product range by backing material. PE, PVC and MOPP products are described below from the supplied product information. For PET and BOPP tape, contact SLAA to confirm available products and specifications.
Flexible polyethylene film supports construction masking and temporary surface protection where moisture resistance is required.
A durable Polyester (PET) film backing coated with a high-temperature silicone adhesive system, permanent bonding to low-surface-energy (LSE) release paper coatings without debonding during thermal processing.
Flexible polyvinyl chloride film conforms to curved and irregular surfaces in product-specific masking, marking and protective applications.
Mono-axially oriented polypropylene film provides high tensile strength and limited stretch in the machine direction for temporary holding.
Masking, protection, bundling, packaging, and marking solutions tailored for industrial and commercial requirements.
Use PVC Fineline Masking Tape for curved paint lines and precision detailing. PVC Masking Tape and PE Stucco Masking Tape address selected construction masking tasks. Match the product to the coating process, surface and removal period.
Consider PE film adhesive tape for industrial applications involving temporary surface protection during construction and finishing. The listed PE Stucco Masking Tape can protect suitable windows, doors and profiles during stucco, plastering and painting. Test adhesion and removal on the actual substrate.
MOPP Holding Tape secures selected appliance components, office equipment and bundled materials during storage and transportation. Specify holding load, direction of stress and required removal conditions.
Use the documented MOPP range for suitable temporary fixing and bundling tasks. For carton sealing or other packaging applications requiring BOPP tape, ask SLAA to confirm the exact product and performance requirements before ordering.
Select dedicated PVC products for floor marking, electrical work or external pipe protection. PVC film tape for industrial applications must be matched to its intended function. General masking or holding tape should not replace tested electrical insulation tape or a specified pipe protection system.
Use this material-level comparison to narrow the options, then verify the finished tape specification. Backing characteristics alone do not establish heat ratings, electrical suitability, outdoor life or removal performance.

If you are deciding how to choose film tape for industrial applications, start with the task and use the following details to compare product specifications.
Identify the sealing, masking, holding or protection task and the exact surface, including coatings or treatments. Test adhesion on the actual material.
State whether the tape must remain in place or be removed. For temporary use, define holding duration, removal timing and acceptable residue.
Provide application and service temperatures, UV exposure, moisture, oils, chemicals and abrasion. Request tested limits for the exact product.
Describe curves, irregular details, movement and loading direction. Select a construction that meets the holding or conformability requirement.
Specify width, roll length, film or total tape thickness, and manual or machine application. Confirm tolerances and roll format before approval.
SLAA can discuss custom film tape requirements by product and order. Options described in the supplied material include width, roll length, film and total tape thickness, color and adhesive system. Availability varies by tape construction and must be confirmed for the requested order.
Provide the preferred backing, substrate, permanent or removable bond requirement and exposure conditions. Ask our team to confirm feasible dimensions, adhesive options and roll format. Packaging methods, PET and BOPP availability, minimum order quantity and lead time require confirmation.
SLAA’s documented range brings together PE construction masking tape, multiple dedicated PVC tapes and MOPP holding tape. Buyers can compare products by backing and intended use before discussing the appropriate construction.
The supplied product descriptions include specific selection details such as serrated edges and UV resistance for PE Stucco Masking Tape, and adhesive type, directional strength and color options for MOPP Holding Tape. Use these details to define your requirements and request the current technical data.
When evaluating a film tape manufacturer, ask SLAA to confirm the proposed model, dimensional tolerances, relevant inspection information, packing details and supply schedule in the quotation. Custom requests can then be reviewed against the selected product and order requirements.
