especially suitable for securing metals which produce high cutting
forces.
High Tack Tape is available through Gerber or most industrial and office
supply distributors.
Note: Using both tape and spray adhesive is a good alternative on
rough-textured wood.
Thin Metals
For thin aluminum or other thin metals:
Use less aggressive Double-Sided Tape. The 3M #410 Double-
Sided Tape is especially suitable for securing thin aluminum or
other light materials to avoid bending the metal when lifting them
after cutting. This tape is available from most industrial and office
supply distributors.
Note: Do not use foam-filled Double-Sided mounting tape. Spray
adhesive works well on thin aluminum.
Non-Metals
For plastic, Styrofoam, thin wood, or other non-metallic
materials:
Use Spray Adhesive. Spray Adhesive is especially suitable for
securing plastic, Styrofoam, wood or other non-metallic materials.
Spray Adhesive is available from Gerber or most industrial and
office supply distributors. Low-tack tape may also be appropriate
for certain types of wood, which tend to splinter when high-tack
tape is removed.
Note: When using acrylic materials as a workpiece, do not remove the
protective paper sheets which preserve the acrylic surface from scratches
during cutting. If the acrylic materials are supplied unmasked, you may
wish to apply the transfer tape before spraying on the adhesive.
