Gummed Linen Tape

Description

Thin strips of Linen fabric with an adhesive coating on one side. The adhesive is usually a water activated compound, such as Dextrin or Animal glue. Linen tapes have been used for hinges on containers and boxes. They are not used on valuable objects, books, or papers because the adhesive is generally too strong, inflexible and difficult to remove.
