tesa HAF® 8401
200 µm amber reactive HAF mounting tape
Product description
tesa HAF® 8401 is a reactive heat activated film based on phenolic resin and nitrile rubber. This amber double sided tape has no backing. It is protected by a strong paper liner and can easily be slit and die cut.
At room temperature tesa HAF® 8401 is not tacky. It is activated for pre-lamination by heat and starts to become tacky at 90 °C/194 °F. In a second application step heat and pressure is applied over a certain period of time.
After curing tesa HAF® 8401 reaches:
- Very high bonding strength
- High temperature resistance
- Excellent chemical resistance
- Bonds remain flexible and elastic
Product details and specifications
Application Fields
It is suitable for bonding of all thermal resistant materials such as metal, glass, plastic, wood and textiles.

Additional Info
Processing:
1.Pre-lamination:
tesa HAF® 8401 is laminated before curing. For this process we recommend a temperature between 120 °C/248 °F and 140 °C/284 °F.
2. Bonding:
The bonding conditions temperature, pressure and time depend on the application. Following parameters can be regarded as a guideline:
Splicing application:
To reach maximum bonding strength surfaces should be clean and dry. Storage conditions according to tesa HAF® shelf life concept.
