Wipe-Down Force: Secure Seals Every Time

Shurtape’s HP Series packaging tape offers an instant, permanent bond to cartons. PrimeLoc tape applicators are designed with multiple, flexible wipe-down points, which increases the wipe-down force by more than 75% over competitive tape applicators. More wipe-down force results in deeper penetration of the tape’s adhesive into the corrugate’s fibers, creating a tamper-evident seal carton after carton.
