Sollex, a manufacturer and supplier of knives and blades for industrial applications, regularly receives inquiries from customers to help analyze production issues or to find a better cutting solution.
In this video we tested which blades are best for cutting reinforced adhesive tapes used for permanent splicing and sealing windshields (HDPE/PP/PE-fleece) in roofing, construction and facade applications

Toothed blades for cutting extremely sticky construction tape
Toothed blades works well on tape with much glue.
The advantage of using a toothed blades compared with a continuous grinded blade is multiple entry point in the material.
With this fact you can approach the material with a 90 degree attic angle and make a lot of small cut into the material. In a machine this means that a smaller area is needed.
When looking on the design of toothed blades there are four major things that affect its cutting abilities: Thickness, Tooth angle, Teeth width, and Teeth length.
The tooth design will determine the quality and shape of the cut material.
Using toothed blades you will get at secreted cut or rather many small cuts. Blade thickness is important to get correct.
A tough material needs a thicker blade and higher force to cut compared to a simple material.
Teeth width determine how serrated the cut will be. Small teeth width gives a small wavy cut. Larger teeth width generates longer waves. But smother teeth gives almost straight cut.
