3M PTFE Film Tape 5490 uses an extruded polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) film backing. This tape offers an extremely low coefficient of friction which, in combination with a pressure sensitive silicone adhesive, creates a smooth, non-stick surface over a variety of substrates to assist in the movement of materials in many types of lay-flat applications.

Designed primarily for sealing aircraft cargo bay panels, 3M Glass Cloth Tape 398FR is an ideal choice for applications requiring high adhesion, an abrasion resistant backing and flame retardant properties. This tape offers a durable abrasion and puncture resistant glass cloth backing that is conformable for ease of installation.

3M PTFE Film Tape 5498 uses an extruded polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) film backing. This tape offers an extremely low coefficient of friction which, in combination with a pressure sensitive rubber adhesive, creates a smooth, non-stick surface over a variety of substrates to assist in mold release applications where a non-silicone tape is required.

3M VHB Tape 4949 is a black, double-sided tape made of a general-purpose acrylic adhesive and a firm, foam core that delivers a total thickness of 45 mil (1.1 mm) when applied and requires no time for curing. Designed to bond a variety of high surface energy (HSE) substrates, this easy-to-use method can help increase productivity by eliminating steps, such as drilling, welding, and other finishing work. Because of its high-strength performance, the tape bonds thin, dissimilar, and lightweight materials while offering a smooth and seamless alternative to using rivets, welds, fasteners, and screws. The advanced closed-cell acrylic technology provides secure bonding that protects against water and seals tightly.

It performs in applications for short-term use at a temperature up to 300 °F (149 °C) or long-term use withstanding up to 200 °F (93 °C). This tape offers an excellent balance of strength, viscoelasticity, and adhesion, making it a powerful bonding solution across numerous industries, including window and door assembly, signage, electronics, construction, and general industrial. Explore the versatility and durability of 3M VHB Tape 4949 for your next operation.

For anodizing, composite bonding and splicing use 3M Polyester Tape 8402. This translucent green tinted tape is coated with a silicone adhesive that bonds well on difficult surfaces, including silicone coated papers and films. It is chemical resistant and performs under a wide range of temperatures and environments.

3M Double Coated Urethane Foam Tape 4008 is an off-white, 0.125 in. (3.2 mm) thick, double coated, open cell urethane foam tape that offers high shear strength. It is ideal for applications such as mounting interior signage and nameplates and areas where 1/8 in. thick foam is needed for gap filling applications.

3M Vinyl Foam Tape 4726 includes a closed cell, medium-density foam backing with a pressure-sensitive acrylic adhesive on one side. It allows for quick-stick to a variety of substrates including many metals, glass and plastics. The silicone treated white paper liner allows for die cutting without having to laminate another liner to the foam.

3M Vinyl Tape 471 is a versatile tape that provides long-lasting floor marking, sharp paint lines, surface protection, and reliable seals in complex situations across a variety of industries. Engineered with unique stretch properties, this tape conforms to rough, irregular, curved, and convex surfaces without lifting. It uses a rubber adhesive that bonds immediately and removes cleanly on a wide variety of substrates. Made for high performance, the vibrant backing resists abrasion, moisture, and solvents. Conformability, instant adhesion, and clean removal all make 3M Vinyl Tape 471 an exceptional choice for general-purpose surface protection, floor marking, hazard identification, paint masking, and decorating.
