About Patco 5560/CLR136 5560 Removable Protective Film

Patco 5560 Removable Protective Film Tape is a clean removal tape which combines a durable and conformable polyethylene film backing with a moderate tack, low adhesion acrylic adhesive which will not leave residue or damage most surfaces. it is used for general protective masking applications on plastics, glass, and metal that require temporary surface protection through assembly or shipping. Patco 5560 is highly conformable; abrasion, moisture and solvent resistant; and removes cleanly and easily. This tape offers moderate tack which allows it to stay adhered during a shipping process, yet since it offers low adhesion (slightly less than that of a blue painters tape) it should still remove cleanly. Please note Patco 5560 is the same product as Patco 5540 - the different numbers were used to help Patco differentiate between the auto glass retention market (5540) and the general surface protection market (5560). Also note that this product is not a static-cling-only type tape like the discontinued 3M 2112C was. Also this tape is not crystal clear like a book repair tape; it is more transparent to translucent and is designed so end users can easily identify the tape in order to remove it. If not otherwise specified widths shown in dropdown are in inches. NOTES: Sizes shipped will typically be the tape industry standard metric-cut sizes, i.e. 24mm for each 1 inch of nominal tape width ordered (rolls are approximately 5% narrower than the nominal size). This product's actual size is 24mm x 33m. This tape is typically cut to width from log rolls so most sizes ship on non-branded plain white cores.Technical InformationCore: 3 inch diameterBacking/Carrier: low density polyethylene (LDPE) filmAdhesive: acrylicThickness: 5.5 mils (carrier, adhesive) 1 mils (adhesive) 4.5 mils (carrier)Adhesion: 12 ounces per inch (to stainless steel test panel) Tensile Strength: 12 pounds per inch (longitudinal) Application.
