    Details:
    AC1S94B1C™ is a splicing tape developed in 2015 by TME®, and made in Europe with advanced adhesives for our critical archive and studio customers who want the longest life splicing tape possible. Previously only available to certain US government archives, genuine TME AC1S94B1™ is easily identified from any other splicing tape by the green plastic core and USR serial number (as of 9-2017).  AC1S94B1C™ is a true archival splicing tape specially designed for very long term use in splicing magnetic tape to leader tape or making intra-tape splices, yet it applies as easily as our AC1S89B1C, the most popular splicing tape in the world.  This studio and archival use splicing tape is made in a certified in an ISO 9001 facility for consistency. Specially formulated for back coated tapes or non-back coated tapes.
    This splicing tape differs from AC1S89B1™ in that it has a proprietary, longer life adhesive than the AC1S89B1™ and is designed for very exacting and critical use, but the "feel" of the splicing tape is about the same. Comes in a double sealed for freshness in a green zip bag with additional outer seal bag for freshness. Please click on the photo for a full screen image. This is absolutely the best splicing tape on the market.
    For 1/4" tape. 82' long on an easily identifiable 1" GREEN plastic core.
    SPLICING TAPE TECHNICAL DATA:
    Tape Color: Blue
    Substrate: .0009 inch...... 23 microns
    Adhesive: .0002 inch...... 5 microns
    Total: .0011 inch...... 28 microns
    Length: 82 FT
    Note: The actual width of this splicing tape is 7/32", which is to the standards set over the years for splicing tape meant for 1/4" width recording media.  Why 7/32"?  When applying splicing tape, you don't want the splicing tape to hang at or over the edges of the recording tape, and the slightly smaller width allows you to easily center the splicing tape in a splicing block like a TMES25N or TMES15NP.
    THE MEDIA BLADE:
    Precision Triple Facet Edge designed for precise cutting (not scraping) for superior sharp cut and a clean edit
    Stainless Steel blade for long life and magnetic resistant properties
    Uncoated means no oil to clean off your blade before use
    90 degree leading and trailing edge (not rounded) for clean cuts
    Stamped GEM® on one side and STAINLESS on the other...Made in USA in Virginia
    .009" Thick Perfect for Professional Splicing Blocks like TME® S25N
    GEM® Media blades are the recording industry standard for post production media editing for over 40 years, and are
    USA made, stainless steel, and triple facet cut for sharpness. This stainless steel blade will not easily magnetize (which will cause pops in your tape splice) and the cutting edge is extremely sharp and long lasting.
    Note: If you see a blade that is not embossed on the safety handle with GEM, they're not made in the USA and are of inferior design meant for scraping, not cutting.
