Abstract: A hand tool is provided for removing a secondary liner from a tape carrier of a two-sided adhesive tape where the opposing primary side of the tape carrier is attached to a surface. The hand tool includes a handle. One end of the handle may include a handle fulcrum depending from the handle. A plurality of sharp points together define a mathematical line. The plurality of sharp points also define point axes which together define a mathematical plane. The mathematical line is coincident with the mathematical plane. The mathematical plane defines an acute angle with respect to the handle and to the handle fulcrum.

Abstract: An adhesive system comprises a carrier and an adhesive for attaching objects, such as a wiring harness, to a support surface, such as the structure of a motor vehicle, aircraft or appliance. The adhesive system features two end portions and a strap portion. An opening in one end portion is configured to receive the other end portion. The opening has a width normal to the longitudinal axis of the carrier that is configured to receive the strap portion of the carrier to define a loop. The carrier may be configured so that the loop maintains a closed condition about an object. Pressure sensitive adhesive disposed on one side of the end portions allows the carrier to be securely attached to a support surface.
