Product Overview
Fiberglass banding tape was originally developed and patented by PEI founder Ted Paul in 1962. PEI was awarded a patent for the products subsequently known as “Polyglass Tape,” “Glass Band,” and “Resi-Glass.” Licenses were granted to manufacturers in Italy, Mexico, Brazil, and India. PEI continues to manufacture OEM approved fiberglass banding tape at its headquarters in Pittsburgh, PA.
PEI's Polyglas Glass Banding Tape is constructed of high tensile glass yarn laid flat and bonded with specially formulated fully catalyzed thermosetting resins. It is not a woven tape, thus it utilizes the maximum tensile strength of the glass, resulting in high modulus, low elongation, and high burst strength bands.
Polyglass tape is our featured product due to these distinguished properties. The high-strength glass yarn is 220 Degree Temperate Rated due to its thermoset polyester resin. Meanwhile, glass banding provides consistent and unparalleled performance in DC equipment and transformer applications.
