NF1612PC
Acrylic transfer adhesive on a 60# polycoated kraft liner — no film carrier. Tack builds progressively over time: 30 oz/in at 20 minutes dwell, reaching 40 oz/in after 24 hours. Application temperature down to 20°F. Service to 180°F. For industrial assembly where initial repositioning is needed before the adhesive develops full bond strength, or where cold-environment application is required.

- Display & Point-of-Purchase: Assembling display components where progressive tack build from 30 to 40 oz/in allows initial repositioning before the adhesive develops full bond strength.
- Industrial Assembly: Assembly bonding in cold environments using a 20°F application temperature transfer adhesive; progressive tack build accommodates alignment adjustment before final contact.
- Laminating & Converting: Laminating where progressive tack build is beneficial for alignment correction before the adhesive reaches full bond strength; PC liner format for converting equipment.
- Packaging: Bonding packaging assemblies where initial repositioning capability before full bond development reduces waste from misalignment during assembly operations.
Are custom widths and short runs available?
Yes. Nova offers custom slit widths and welcomes short runs across the full product line. Most quotes are returned within 24–48 hours. Reach out today to discuss your specific requirements.
When should I use a transfer tape instead of a film-carrier tape?
Transfer tapes are adhesive-only — no carrier film — so the adhesive is invisible once the liner is removed. Use a transfer tape when a clean, seamless finish matters, when a thinner construction is needed, or when a carrier film would interfere with the application. Film-carrier tapes offer more handling control and are better suited where dimensional stability or higher shear resistance is required.
What does 'tack builds over time' mean for NF1612PC in a packaging workflow?
NF1612PC has a delayed-tack characteristic — initial adhesion is lower, allowing brief repositioning after application, but bond strength builds over hours to days as the adhesive flows into the substrate surface. This is useful in assembly lines where parts are repositioned before final bonding or compression.
