Lineco Self-Adhesive Linen Hinging Tape is used for securing mats, artwork and photographs to backing boards. Linen is ideal because it is archival quality, pH neutral, and made from strong high thread count cotton. Because of its greater tensile strength and flexibility it is preferred for mounting heavier papers, such as watercolor papers, as it will resist tearing from the weight of the artwork.
