Affixing the Code Tape

Dimensions of the Code Tape
The code tape is made of silicone-free polyester film. A position marker appears every 100 mm
along the lower edge of the code tape (see "Dimensions, Code Tape"). These position markers
are used to affix the code tape in the correct position.
The back of the code tape is covered with a modified acrylate-based adhesive designed for
permanent adhesion. Affix the self-adhesive code tape along the desired traverse distance. To
do so, proceed as follows:
Affixing the Code Tape
1.
Clean the surface of any greasy or oily deposits and dust.
2.
Ensure that the surface is dry, clean, and stable.
3.
Pull away a few centimeters of the protective film at the beginning of the code tape. Place the
code tape at the precise point of the required starting position on the surface, and press to
attach.
4.
Then affix the code tape along the desired traverse distance. Please note the following
information:
5.
Remove the protective film gradually so that the code tape does not accidentally adhere to the
surface in an incorrect position. When affixing the code tape, ensure that it does not become
creased or trap air bubbles.
The adhesive on the code tape hardens after 72 hours.
Note
Thermal Expansion of the Code Tape
The affixed code tape corresponds to the thermal expansion coefficient of the surface with
regard to its thermal expansion. Keep this in mind when installing expansion joints, for example.
