*Note that the adhesion strength of 61 oz. per in. was obtained by testing 10 samples of XXXX tape in accordance with PSTC-101 and a 90 second dwell time (the time scale most useful to users of D 3359). This is representative data and actual batch-specific data may vary. Factors such as relative humidity and age of the tape can have a significant impact on the adhesion strength. |
