Reliable hold for every hook-and-loop fastener application Adhesives for hook and loop system applications with responsibility

Some people like it hot, as we all know. But perhaps your specific project would be better suited to a cool acrylate coating rather than a hot melt coating? The fact is: wherever professional requirements are placed on the adhesive surfaces of modern hook-and-loop systems, excellent and tailor-made solutions are in demand. To this end, kragoTEC® not only offers the entire range of available adhesive technologies, but also the necessary expertise to select the right variant for each individual application ...

Which adhesive technology – but also which grammage or special adhesive formulation – is actually the right one for your individual application depends on numerous factors. For example, the weather conditions that a project has to withstand should be taken into account when selecting suitable technologies, as should the surfaces to be bonded. kragoTEC® brand hook and loop tapes can be equipped with different adhesive technologies for optimum and secure adhesion to various substrates and surfaces. Find out here which coating could be right for your project ...

What adhesive technologies are used for modern hook-and-loop fastener systems?

Essentially, the following coatings are distinguished:

  • Water-based acrylate coatings for a wide range of applications
  • Hot melt coatings, so-called hot melt adhesives, based on rubber, for example with flame-retardant properties, which are regularly used successfully in the aerospace industry, among other areas
  • Polyurethane adhesives, which are used, for example, specifically for the manufacture of back-to-back hook-and-loop fasteners
  • High-frequency weldable coatings in various versions to accommodate different application scenarios

But that's not all! There are also different compositions to differentiate between. For example, high-frequency weldable coatings can be based on co-polyamide, co-polyester or water-based polyurethane – and thus make the subtle difference that ensures the success of your project. Different material properties, i.e. the right degree of viscosity, as well as different grammages that vary depending on the application, also play a major role in ensuring a durable, secure hold – even under the most adverse circumstances or weather conditions.

Important properties for adhesive technologies

Grammage, viscosity, formulation: kragoTEC® advises – and tests for you!

No matter what challenge you face, our experienced specialists will develop the best possible adhesive solution for your product or project based on your individual application and usage conditions. Depending on your needs, the formulations and adhesive quantities or weights of adhesives can be individually adjusted, or adhesive traces can be specifically varied. Our in-house test laboratory makes this possible.
