VELCRO® Brand PRESS-LOK® Tabs

PRESS-LOK® Tabs are pre-cut self-adhesive rectangular tabs which are self-engaging, so separate hook and loop is not necessary. Using two of these PRESS-LOK® tabs for a positive and secure fastening is all that is required. 

Coated with PS-32 which is a high quality, general purpose rubber adhesive with an excellent immediate tack; these tabs are suitable for use on most surfaces including paper, card, rigid plastic, glass, and metal. They are not suitable for use on PVC, vinyl or anything containing plasticizers. Uses for these tabs include point of sale, retail display, stationery, and packaging applications. The industrial rolls are 50m long with approx. 3846 tabs per roll. The tabs are 20mm x 10mm.

VELCRO® Brand PRESS-LOK® Rolls for Packaging

PRESS-LOK® rolls offer superior closure in the packaging industry. Instead of needing to perfectly align zippers, PRESS-LOK® closures easily engage when the two sides are pressed together. 

Industry feedback indicates that this is a benefit to older consumers, as the technology does the work, not the user. For even further assurance, one can actually hear the hooks securing. 

Velcro Companies tests verify 100% performance even after 300 openings, which means goods are secure. All that and PRESS-LOK® tabs maintain a low profile. The discreet, transparent closure adds functionality without disturbing existing design aesthetic.

VELCRO® Brand Weldable, Heat or Solvent-Activated Tapes

Solvent and heat activated adhesives, available on most VELCRO® Brand hook and loop tapes, provide the strongest bond to the tape itself. They can be made ready for instant bonding by many easy methods of application (e.g. solvent, heat, ultrasonic, dielectric). Also, they are recommended for applications where a more permanent bond is desired. Dry to the touch, these adhesives become tacky upon activation using ultrasonic, high-frequency welding, ironing, hot air application or solvents. The adhesives used are either based on nitrile rubber or urethane which can be activated by; high-frequency hot air, ultrasonic welding, ironing or solvents such as MEK or Acetone.
