3M 7000048395 Polyethylene Tape 1 in X 36 Yd 5.1 Mil

Product Description

The 3M 7000048395 is a transparent polyethylene tape supplied in a 1-inch wide by 36-yard roll at a 5.1 mil gauge thickness. Polyethylene tape of this type is used for moisture protection, pipe wrapping, surface masking, and bundling applications across plumbing, HVAC, and general mechanical trades. The 5.1 mil gauge provides a balance of conformability and puncture resistance, making it suitable for irregular surfaces and light-duty sealing tasks. It ships and is sold by the roll.

This tape is appropriate for residential and light commercial applications where a flexible, transparent, moisture-resistant film barrier is needed. Common use cases include wrapping pipe insulation seams, temporary surface protection during installation, and securing vapor barrier edges. The transparent film allows technicians to verify coverage without removing the tape.

Key Features

• Transparent film for visual inspection without removal
• 5.1 mil gauge for conformability on irregular surfaces
• 1-inch width suits standard pipe and seam wrapping tasks
• 36-yard roll length reduces mid-job splicing
• Polyethylene construction resists moisture

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose polyethylene tape roll suitable for pipe wrapping, vapor barrier sealing, and surface protection tasks in mechanical and construction trade applications.

Installation Notes

No special tools are required for application beyond a tape dispenser or utility knife for clean cuts. Ensure the substrate surface is dry and free of dust or oils before applying for best adhesion. Follow applicable building codes when using tape as part of a vapor barrier or pipe insulation system.
