3M Adhesive Transfer Tape 9445 leverages the power of 3M High Performance Acrylic Adhesive 350 and is mounted on a white, 55 lb. densified kraft paper liner for general purpose applications. This transfer tape is an excellent solution for bonding high and low surface energy materials. It can also be used for joining materials that have rougher surfaces.

3M Removable Repositionable Tape 9415PC is a double-coated tape that works on a variety of substrates or materials for the temporary mounting of lightweight materials, such as paper, plastics, films, or foams. This low-tack adhesive allows removal from many papers, foils, and films, and its resilient polyester carrier improves the handling and strength of the tape, provides dimensional stability, helps deliver efficient processing of parts, and promotes consistent ease of liner removal. This tape is ideal for a wide range of applications, including core starting/end tabbing, holding credit cards in mailers, closing envelopes, and more.

This tape also utilizes 3M Adhesive 400 on the face side, which provides an excellent balance of good initial adhesion and good shear-holding power across a range of temperatures, as well as 3M Adhesive 1000 on the liner side, a low-tack, repositionable, acrylic, pressure-sensitive adhesive that allows for removal and repositioning of many papers, plastics, foams, and foils.

3M Adhesive Transfer Tape 9653LE is a versatile, market proven, 3.5 mil (0.09 mm) transfer tape on a printed release paper liner. Featuring 3M 300LSE acrylic adhesive, this tape has a long and proven history of reliably bonding a wide variety of similar and dissimilar materials such as metals, most plastics, glass, papers and painted surfaces.

This prespace tape is specially formulated for use with large format screen printed and electronically cut graphics to ease the application of small text.

3M Lead Foil Tape 420 is an electrically and thermally conductive tape. This highly conformable tape resists flame, moisture, weather, UV degradation, chemicals and radiation. Mated with an easy-release film liner, this malleable tape can be shaped into complex or detailed patterns or die-cut into specific shapes to meet assembly and manufacturing process needs.
