Properties of Self-adhesive LR

Practically, all properties known for LR can be incorporated into a self-adhesive material. Such modifications include LR with enhanced oil, tear and/or heat resistance. 

In the case of the widely used self-lubricating LR, self-adhesive behaviour can be achieved as well. Even conductive self-adhesive LR is theoretically possible.
