Key Features of Our Food Sealing Tape
Product Overview
PVC can sealing tape is made for the outside rim of rigid metal tins, not for carton closure, bottle caps, cup lids, or direct food contact. It is applied around the lid edge, pressed across the overlap area, and peeled away when the tin is opened. For printed tea tins, varnished cookie tins, and decorative metal containers, the transparent PVC tape seals the rim without hiding surface design.
The 0.10-0.13 mm PVC film gives enough body for hand application while still bending around raised rims and folded metal edges. Rubber adhesive grips clean metal surfaces quickly without making the tape difficult to remove. In factory sample observations, clean, dry, oil-free rims showed better edge control and fewer lifting points.
Before regular use, check the selected width on the actual tin surface. Printing ink, varnish hardness, coating type, dwell time, and storage temperature can all influence no-residue peel-off.
Benefits
- Clear PVC backing keeps printed logos, color coatings, and metallic finishes visible.
- Rubber adhesive supports quick positioning on clean metal rims.
- Can rim sealing tape construction helps the strip follow raised lid edges and overlap areas.
- No-residue can sealing tape performance helps reduce cleaning work after opening.
- 0.10-0.13 mm film thickness gives steady hand control during short-strip application.
- 12-1260 mm slitting range supports narrow widths for tea tins, cookie tins, and gift tin boxes.
- Typical checks include peel adhesion, holding power, tensile strength, hand tear, edge lifting, and clean removal.
How does PVC film help the tape follow the curved rim of a metal tin?
PVC film gives tin box sealing tape a useful mix of flexibility and edge control. When pressed around a raised lid edge or rolled metal rim, the clear backing follows the curve without covering the printed surface. In sample observations, 0.10-0.13 mm film thickness gave enough body for manual handling while still allowing neat bending around corners, lid overlaps, and narrow sealing lines.

What should be checked before using no-residue PVC tin can sealing tape on coated metal surfaces?
Before regular production, test the tape on the actual tin coating, printing ink, varnish layer, and lid shape. Rubber adhesive is selected for quick tack and stable holding, but coated metal surfaces may react differently after storage, heat exposure, or repeated peel-off. A practical check should include 0.25-0.45 kg/25 mm peel adhesion reference, >=24 h holding power, hand tearability, edge lifting observation, and clean removal after the selected dwell time.
FAQ
Is PVC Tin Can Sealing Tape used for direct food contact?
No. It is intended for external rim sealing on metal tins and decorative metal containers. Direct food-contact claims require confirmed compliance documents.
Can this tape be removed without residue?
It is designed for no-residue peel-off on suitable coated metal surfaces. Printed inks, varnishes, storage time, and contamination can affect removal, so sample testing is recommended.
What width is commonly used for tin rim sealing?
Narrow widths are usually selected for lid edges and rim sealing. The 12-1260 mm slitting range allows the width to match the rim size and overlap area.
Does transparent PVC tape cover the tin design?
The transparent PVC film helps keep printed patterns, logos, and metal finishes visible. Firm pressure also helps reduce bubbles and edge lifting on clean tin surfaces.
