Pressure-sensitive tape is a type of adhesive tape that sticks to surfaces when pressure is applied, without needing heat or water. It consists of a backing material, such as plastic or paper, coated with a sticky adhesive. This makes it easy to use for various applications, including packaging, sealing, and crafting. Commonly known as duct tape, masking tape, or double-sided tape, pressure-sensitive tape is versatile and can bond to many surfaces like wood, metal, and plastic. It is widely used in both household and industrial settings, providing a quick and effective solution for temporary or permanent adhesion.
