Contact SupplierSpacer Tape is a specialized load bearing PVC foam tape, designed to act as a spacing element between the IG (insulated glass) unit and frame during the assembly of structural glazing fabrications.
Recommended for use as a spacing element in structurally glazed fabrications. Spacer Tape forms an effective short-term bond between the frame and the IG unit during assembly and creates a gap of the correct dimensions for the structural silicone, which is used as the primary bond.

Application InstructionsÂ
Surface preparationÂ
Surfaces should be clean, dry and free from all contamination. The surfaces should be cleaned using an appropriate cleaner. Primers may be required on some substrates. It is recommended that Adshead Ratcliffe Technical Services should be consulted and advice obtained with regard to the choice of primer for specific purposes
Â
ApplicationÂ
Unwind the tape and apply the open face directly to the frame. Cut to the required length forming tight butt joints at the corners. Press the tape firmly onto the surface by hand or by using a seam roller. Remove the protective liner immediately before glazing. Carefully position the IG unit onto the tape and apply pressure to consolidate the bond. The structural silicone can now be applied.
