Increasingly, such a phrase as “perforated tape” began to appear in everyday life. If earlier this concept was associated mainly with computers, now it has firmly entered the terminology associated with the construction and repair of buildings and structures.
Material overview
There are a huge number of products with the name "perforated tape" on sale. Moreover, this product can be made from a variety of materials. The choice of building material directly depends on where and for what purpose it is planned to use the perforated tape. So, on sale you can find products made of galvanized steel and coated with a special polymer layer. This perforated tape is used to create suspension systems and the construction of mounting clamps. Most often, such materials are used in the installation of plumbing and ventilation systems, as well as in general construction work. This perforated tape has a width of 20 mm, and its thickness is 0.5 mm. Rolls are sold in lengths of 10, 15, 25 m. On thisThe tape has main mounting holes for M8 screws, as well as additional holes for M3 self-tapping screws. On sale you can find tapes in other sizes (width - 12-30 mm; thickness - 0.55-1 mm), which have not yet gained wide popularity.
Key Features
Perforated tape can be made from other classes and types of steel, but it must be galvanized (to prevent oxidation). It must have high strength, withstand increased tensile forces (not less than 100 MPa). The minimum term of such hardware materials is 10 years. The perforated mounting tape is attached to the structures with the help of self-tapping screws or dowels. The main advantage of perforated tape is the presence of a huge number of holes of different diameters. This hardware carefully insures the fastening of structures. There is no need to worry about a flawless tie-in, since there is no weakening of the strength of the main nodes. The perforated mounting tape allows for nail fastening. It reduces labor costs, improves the appearance of structures, and enhances the strength of structures. Mounting perforated tape, the price of which is quite low (150 rubles / a package of hardware 25 m long), can be used in the manufacture of a variety of designs.
Perforated Polycarbonate Tape
In addition to fasteners made of galvanized steel, a tape can be found on saleperforated with a microfilter, which is specially designed to seal and protect cellular polycarbonate from dirt and dust. This self-adhesive, durable and inexpensive building material follows the temperature fluctuations of the panels. At the same time, the tape creates the necessary microclimate inside the polycarbonate cells. The service life of this material is 10 years. It tolerates ultraviolet rays, low and high temperatures, high humidity. This silver colored tape has a high adhesion adhesive. There are several types of punched tape width for polycarbonate: for a panel of 4-10 mm - 25 mm: 16-25 mm - 38 mm; 32-40 mm - 50 mm.
