HALCO® W1 Weldable Hook and Loop
HALCO® W1 Weldable Hook and Loop is a heat-activated fastener engineered for permanent, waterproof bonding to flexible and semi-rigid vinyl and PVC substrates — materials where pressure sensitive adhesives fail due to plasticizer migration.
The polyurethane adhesive coating remains dry to the touch until activated by thermal or RF (radio frequency) welding. When heated, the adhesive flows and bonds permanently to the substrate. Once welded, bond strength exceeds most PSA alternatives, and the waterproof seal eliminates material perforation caused by sewing.
Ideal for tents, awnings, automotive floor mats, inflatable products, blood pressure cuffs, and other flexible vinyl applications requiring long-term durability and moisture resistance.
