DESCRIPTION

Kapplers patented, chemical-resistant ChemTape is a PPE necessity. It provides critical reinforcement by sealing the gaps, referred to as interfaces, where your hazmat suit meets your gloves, boots, and the edge of your respirator or gas mask facepiece. It helps to maintain a near airtight environment inside your suit while allowing you to stay mobile. ChemTape is easy to use, highly effective and has a practically unlimited shelf life when stored in proper conditions.

TechnicalSpecification

KapplerChemTape is designed specifically for use with protective apparel.

Ideal for taping around gloves, boots, respirators, and storm flaps, ChemTape can also be used as a means of identification thanks to its high-visibility yellow color, as well as for shelter-in-place applications. Its even suitable for pipe sealing and shelter or tent repair.

ChemTape is primarily designed to enhance the liquid holdout of interfaces and closures on protective garments. It can also reduce the potential of gross liquid flow at interfaces. It should NOT be relied upon to provide a liquid-tight seal, but it can dramatically improve protection from liquid threats, splashes, aerosols, and particulates.

ChemTape is 2 inches wide with pressure-sensitive adhesive, ensuring wide and direct coverage when applied, with only the tapes flat edge exposed to airborne threats that could degrade the adhesive. Once applied, it will remain firmly adhered yet can be removed without damaging reusable protective garments.

ChemTape provides exceptional protection from a full battery of chemical, biological, and gas threats.
