Pres-On’s reverse wound foam tape is wound in the opposite direction from conventional tapes. In typical foam tapes, the adhesive side faces inward when the foam is on the roll, making it necessary to unravel the tape to access the adhesive. However, with reverse wound foam tape, the adhesive side faces outward on the roll, allowing for easier application.

Some PVC foams are reverse wound because they are cast directly onto the liner paper during the production of the foam. By casting on the liner, the PVC foam clings to the liner paper, without adhesive.  The adhesive is than applied to the opposite side of the foam and wound with the liner paper facing out. 

This form of tape is particularly useful in industrial settings and for applications requiring rapid and precise tape application, such as mounting, gap filling, cushioning, and sound dampening.
