Storage & Shelf Life
A-A-59163 silicone rubber tape should be stored at room temperatue (70°F) and between 30 to 50% relative humidity. Storage at over 125°F can result in a reduction of bond strength and adhesion when used. Shelf life is recommended at 2 years from batch date on packaging. Unused tape can be retested by returning to factory.
