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.
