Repair patches made of Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) have a wide range of applications due to the material’s excellent properties, including flexibility, durability, and resistance to abrasion and chemicals. Shin Dorn offers pre-cut self-adhesive TPU patches ideal for multiple repair purposes. For your reference, here are some common applications for TPU repair patches:

1. Outdoor gear and equipment: TPU adhesive patches are often used to mend tears, punctures, or abrasions on outdoor gear such as tents, backpacks, sleeping pads, jackets, and rain coats. With outstanding flexibility properties, soft TPU patches help maintain the waterproof and windproof properties of the gear.

2. Inflatables and water sports equipment: Self-adhesive TPU patches are commonly used for repairing punctures and leaks in inflatable items such as air mattresses, inflatable boats, pool floats, water toys, and kayaks. TPU’s resistance to water makes it suitable for water-related applications.

3. Automotive and upholstery repairs: TPU repair patches can be used to mend tears or scratches in vehicle interiors, including car seats, dashboard covers, armrests, and upholstery. TPU’s flexibility and ability to adhere to different surfaces make it useful for these repairs.

4. Medical equipment: TPU patches find applications in the medical field for repairing and reinforcing medical equipment, such as inflatable splints, rehabilitation equipment, and medical cushions. TPU’s biocompatibility and resistance to fluids make it suitable for medical settings.

5. Luggage and bags: TPU repair tapes/patches can repair damaged areas on luggage, backpacks, and bags. They can reinforce corners, handles, or tears in the fabric, ensuring the longevity of the items.

6. Bicycle inner tube: Thanks to the flexibility and durability of TPU material, TPU patches can be used for fix bike tire puncture.

These are just a few examples of the applications of TPU repair patches. The versatility and durability of TPU make it a valuable material for repairing various products in different industries. (Reference: Vinyl and TPU Tape: Choosing the Right Repair Solution)
