Customer
Manufacturing Company, Plastic Molder
Part
Plastic molded cover for alarm system control module
Material
3M 2105C low-tack protective tape
Kingzom Advantage
Material expertise; Ability to manufacture final parts kiss-cut to a roll with pull-tabs
Challenge
The customer required a cling film material to protect the molded plastic piece they manufactured that would act as the alarm system control module display cover. The customer experienced difficulty in finding a cling film that would adhere to the plastic material of their part (poly methyl methacrylate).
Solution
Instead of a cling film, Kingzom material experts recommended a low-tack protective tape, 3M 2105C. This low-tack adhesive adheres to the specific plastic material of the customer’s part and removes easily without leaving residue. Kingzom also provided precise die cut parts kiss-cut to a liner with pull-tabs for easy removal and efficient assembly by the customer.
