3M Scotchrap Tape 50 is a premium grade, 10 mil thick, all weather, PVC backing tape. It withstands temperatures of 55 to 176 °F ( 48 to 80 °C). This high tack adhesive tape offers resistance to corrosion, impact, abrasion and puncture, making it suitable for use on metal piping systems, conduits and fittings both above and below ground.

3M High Performance Masking Tape 232 is capable of masking paint while removing cleanly. Its thick crepe paper backing contains a solvent-resistant saturant that helps resist paint bleed against latex- and oil-based paints.

3M Polyimide Tape 8998 is a dark amber colored polyimide tape with a silicone adhesive meant to withstand heat during high-temperature masking operations. It offers excellent thermal, chemical and abrasion resistance. It seals tight on contact and peels off clean at up to 500°F/260°C.

3M Double Coated Polyester Tape 442KW is a double sided tape featuring a rubber based adhesive, ideal for laminated bonding with semiconductor CMP polishing pads and clean removal from platens. A thin polyester (PET) film carrier helps the adhesive bond firmly to both platen and pad. A polycoated paper release liner provides excellent dimensional stability.

3M Polyester Tape 875 has a thin, high strength polyester film that provides a degree of conformability while meeting low caliper requirements. This tape works in demanding conditions and provides satisfactory performance in short term bake cycles at 400°F (204°C), as well as longer term autoclave processes up to 350°F (177°C).

3M Double Coated Adhesive Tape L1+DCP is a 3.5 mil double-coated polyester (PET) tape that provides added dimensional stability and improved handing during laminating or die cutting processes, particularly on thin or flexible substrates. Adhesive coat weight of 1.5 mils on each side of a 0.50 mil PET carrier provides good adhesion to many foam substrates.

3M Scrim Reinforced Adhesive Tape L1+RT features a 3.2 mil modified acrylic adhesive that delivers aggressive quick stick and a permanent bond to plastics, metals, nonwovens, felts and foams. The high density scrim carrier boosts dimensional stability during lamination processes.

3M Durable Floor Marking Tape 971 is specially designed to withstand heavy traffic such as scuffing from pallets and heavy equipment. It uses a tough, low-profile backing to resist curling and edge lift, prolonging the life of floor marking arrangements. This tape uses rubber adhesive to form a strong bond and provide clean, one-piece removal, even after extended use. Its linerless composition gives you the freedom to apply it by hand or using the 3M Lane Marking Applicator M1. Ideal for 5S lean manufacturing initiatives, a wide variety of vivid colors keep industrial floors organized with color-coded efficiency. Between long-lasting construction and vibrant colors, 3M Durable Floor Marking Tape 971 is ready to optimize floors in demanding shipping, manufacturing, and workshop settings.

3M VHB Tape 5962 is a double-sided tape comprised of a multi-purpose modified acrylic adhesive with a conformable, foam core that delivers a total thickness of 62 mil (1.6 mm) when applied and requires no curing time. The advanced closed-cell acrylic technology offers secure bonding that performs on many painted and powder coated surfaces. Engineered to be strong, it can replace rivets, welds, and screws while providing faster production by eliminating the need for drilling, welding, grinding, and project cleanup. Offering seamless joining and minimal surface preparation, this easy-to-use bonding method keeps surfaces smooth and aesthetically pleasing resulting in a professional application on thin, lightweight, and dissimilar materials.

It performs in applications for short-term use (up to four hours) at a temperature up to 300 °F (149 °C) or long-term use withstanding up to 200 °F (93 °C). This tape balances strength, viscoelasticity, conformability, and adhesion to various surfaces, such as stainless steel. These attributes make 3M VHB Tape 5962 a reliable choice to take on a variety of bonding and sealing applications in transportation, appliance, electronics, construction, signage, and general industrial. Discover the many ways to apply the powerful bonding potential of 3M VHB Tape 5962.

Constructed with a woven fiberglass backing, 3M General Purpose Glass Cloth Tape 3615 features a pressure sensitive silicone adhesive for applications requiring high-temperature resistance and high adhesion. It is often used for high temperature applications requiring high tensile strength and good holding power.

Comprised of a polyester film backing with a layer of adhesive on each side, 3M Double Coated Tape 93020LE is a market proven, double coated transfer tape with good anti-lifting properties. This tape bonds well to similar and dissimilar materials including, metals, most plastics, glass, papers and painted surfaces.
