Determining Bonding Strength
When heat and pressure are applied, the film is activated, creating extremely high bonding power (up to 4,300 pounds per square inch). Once cured, the film remains flexible and is resistant to chemicals and aging. tesa® HAFs are suitable for bonding thermal-resistant materials, such as metal, glass, plastic, wood, textiles, and more.
