Hot-melt is a low-temperature melting plastic, which makes this adhesive have low temperature resistance. It also ages poorly (becoming brittle) and has low UV resistance. This rubber is used for low- to medium-duty carton sealing, low-temperature splicing as well as paper core starting applications.

In the automotive sector, PVC black tape is indispensable for its robust performance. It is often utilized for securing loose components, protecting wiring, and shielding surfaces during painting or refinishing processes. The tape’s resistance to fuel and oil makes it particularly suitable for automotive applications, where exposure to harsh substances is common. Moreover, its sleek black appearance provides an unobtrusive finish that is especially important in aesthetic-focused tasks such as interior detailing.
