ARclad 9059 is a 2-mil, single-coated, pressure-sensitive, red acrylic splicing tape designed for caliper restricted applications – especially butt splicing applications. It provides temperature resistance and adhesion to a variety of different substrates including foil, laminates, films, and coated substrates.

The reddish-colored, transparent qualities of ARclad 9059 give operators dual functionality by providing the visibility necessary to line up the edges of substrates when making a splice as well as providing easy splice identification.
