Description
tesa® ACXplus 73205 – Transparent Acrylic Foam Tape (500 μm)
High-Transparency Bonding for Aesthetic, Seamless Applications
Product Overview
tesa® ACXplus 73205 is a high-performance, double-sided acrylic foam tape engineered for applications requiring optical clarity and a virtually invisible bond line. Its 500 μm transparent acrylic core provides viscoelastic performance—absorbing stress, filling gaps, and ensuring long-lasting bonding strength, even on irregular surfaces. Designed specifically for bonding glass, acrylic, polycarbonate, and other transparent or translucent materials, it delivers a clean, seamless aesthetic in signage, displays, and architectural or interior design elements.
