Polyken 296FR is a flame-retardant tape with a fibreglass cloth backing, bromide-free acrylic adhesive and LDPE film liner. It offers super high tensile strength and resists flame penetration; it conforms to curves and corners, is repositionable and removes cleanly. It complies with FAR 25.853(a), 25.855(d) and 25.856(a) and meets the requirements for use in aircraft cargo compartments. White, printed or unprinted.
