How long can anti slip tape be used? Will it become non stick or polished after a few months? It is what many people are most concerned about. It may not stick or polish for a few months, or it may last for several years, depending on the quality of the tape, the environment in which it is used, and its strength.
What will affect its lifespan?
In addition to the quality of the product itself, the following factors will directly determine the service life of your anti slip tape:
The intensity of use is the core: with the same 1 million foot traffic, if a suitcase or handcart with wheels is crushed every day, the lifespan will be sharply shortened. Although industrial grade tape can withstand higher loads, it cannot withstand continuous violent wear and tear.
Environment is a key variable:
-- Indoor vs Outdoor: Outdoor exposure to sunlight and rain is the enemy of tape. High quality adhesive tape will have UV resistant and weather resistant designs, such as the JEUDEN series, while ordinary adhesive tape may age and peel off in a few months outdoors.
-- Damp vs Dry: Long term humid environments will test the waterproof and moisture-proof properties of adhesives. Some of Jay Chou's comfort tapes emphasize their moisture resistance and are suitable for use in changing rooms and by swimming pools.
-- Chemical corrosion: If used in places where chemicals may come into contact (such as certain workshops), it is necessary to choose adhesive tape with good chemical resistance.
Installation is the foundation: Before pasting, make sure to clean the ground thoroughly, ensure it is dry, and free of oil stains. This step is not done properly, even the most expensive tape cannot stick firmly, and the edges may appear in a few days.
So, to determine how long it can last, you need to first ask yourself these questions: Where should I stick it (indoors/outdoors)? Are the main people walking or are there cars running over them? Are there any requirements for waterproofing and oil resistance?
