A new FDA-compliant metal detectable
Teflon-glass fabric adhesive tape for users of heat sealing equipment
or product chutes, who want to use a metal detector to identify tape
failures that could end up in end-user packages, is being introduced
by Andrew Roberts, Inc. of Natick, Massachusetts. ANROB 254-MDT Metal Detectable Teflon Tape features a Teflon-glass fabric with a foil backing and silicone adhesive to provide a non-stick surface to heat seal against, or a slippery cover for chutes that transport foods or drugs. Providing protection against worn tape falling into a polybag or package and going undetected, this foil-backed Teflon tape can be identified by a metal detector before leaving the manufacturer or converter's facility. Available in 1/4" to 39" wide by 36 yard rolls, ANROB 254-MDT Metal Detectable Teflon Tape is 9 mils thick and operates at 500° F continuous. Helping to prevent worn tape from falling into packages and being shipped to consumers, applications for this composite Teflon-glass fabric and aluminum foil tape include the packaging of food, pharmaceuticals, and medical disposable products. |
