This Hi-Shrink tape that has been perforated with punched holes on 1/4" staggered centers. Perforated Hi-Shrink tape retains all of the features of the standard Hi-Shrink tape, but the added perforations enhance excess resin to be removed. When wrapped around an object and heated, the Hi-Shrink tape starts to shrink and applies pressure to the underlying laminate. Ideally suited for making composites tubes (with the aid of appropriate mandrels).
Important: Only the outer face of the tape has a release agent applied (PTFE coating)
