General-Purpose Bi-Directional Filament Tape 4591

Tesa 4591 is a bidirectional filament tape built on glass fibers laminated to polyester film. It suits warehouse staff and shippers who need strong strapping for pallets, bundling steel coils, or securing shelves and trays when moving heavy appliances. The synthetic rubber adhesive bonds to corrugated board, polyethylene and polypropylene without residue on removal.

Hand-Dispenser Installation and Common Issues

The tape performs best when applied with a hand dispenser for consistent tension. Without a dispenser, uneven pull can cause the glass-fiber reinforcement to split or the adhesive to bond poorly to low-surface-energy plastics. The tear-resistant carrier resists accidental nicks, but sharp edges on metal coils may still initiate a tear if the tape is not centred on the load.

55-Yard Roll Capacity and Limits

A single 55-yard roll with 5.5-mil thickness provides enough length for multiple pallet straps or coil bundles in one session. The 86.8-ounce-per-inch adhesion to stainless steel gives reliable holding power on corrugated and solid board, yet the tape reaches its limit on extremely heavy dynamic loads where elongation must stay near zero or where prolonged UV exposure exceeds its weatherproof rating.
