Lineco 9010198 archival tape for repairing paper and documents, 2.5 cm

Lineco 9010198 – archival paper repair tape

Lineco repair tape is intended for paper conservation: documents, prints, postcards, photographs and damaged cards. It is made of pH-neutral, acid-free materials, so it does not speed up the aging of valuable collections the way ordinary office tapes do. Once applied, it is almost invisible.

Use

The tape is suitable for mending tears, reinforcing folds and edges, attaching sheets in mats and small bookbinding jobs. The manufacturer also recommends it for hobby, office and professional framing. It is adhesive on one side, and its width is 2.5 cm.

It is a practical addition to the kit of anyone involved in paper conservation: an archivist, a collector of old maps and prints, an antiquarian or an artist. The tape lets you reversibly secure delicate documents, without the risk of yellowing and discoloration in later years. Before use it is always worth testing the adhesive on an unimportant spot or on a copy.

It is worth having on hand when you need to quickly repair documents, and also when looking for an acid-free tape solution for a home archive or museum collections.
