10 Medical Uses for Differential Double-Sided Adhesive Tape

Differential double-sided adhesive tapes are a great way to bond two very different materials - think foam to glass or steel to plastic - and their versatility makes them a popular choice in industries like electronics and automotive. This two-faced approach to adhesive tape bonding makes differential tape the perfect choice for bonding two materials with significantly different surface characteristics. It's also the main reason you'd probably choose to use a differential tape in the first place. In this post, we turn our attention to some of the most common ways that you'll find differential adhesive tapes being used for medical applications.
