3M 7000048489 Super Bond Film Tape 396 1in X 36yd

Product Description

The 3M 7000048489 is a transparent polyester film tape designed for high-strength bonding across a wide range of trade and industrial applications. At 4.1 mil total caliper, it pairs a dimensionally stable polyester film backing with a thick rubber-resin adhesive layer that delivers extremely high immediate tack and long-term holding power. Each roll measures 1 inch wide by 36 yards long. The low-profile construction allows the tape to conform to surfaces without adding significant bulk, making it a practical choice for splicing, bundling, and securing tasks where a clean, transparent finish matters.

This tape is suited for use in HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and general mechanical trade environments where a reliable, high-adhesion film tape is required. It performs well in applications such as wire harness bundling, sealing light-duty joints, securing insulation facing, splicing sheet materials, and general assembly work on both smooth and moderately irregular surfaces. The transparent film allows underlying markings and labels to remain visible after application, which is useful during installation and inspection.

Key Features

• Polyester film backing provides tensile strength and dimensional stability
• Thick rubber-resin adhesive delivers extremely high immediate adhesion and holding power
• 4.1 mil (0.10 mm) total caliper for low-profile, flexible bonding
• Transparent construction keeps underlying markings and labels visible
• 1 inch wide by 36 yard roll format for standard trade use

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose high-adhesion film tape suitable for bonding, splicing, and securing applications on a variety of smooth and semi-smooth substrates across HVAC, electrical, and mechanical service work.

Installation Notes

Surface preparation is critical for maximum adhesion — clean surfaces of dust, oil, and moisture before application. Apply firm pressure along the full tape length to ensure full contact between the adhesive and the substrate. No special tools are required for most applications; a tape applicator or dispenser is recommended for consistent roll-out on longer runs. Cut tape cleanly with a utility knife or tape dispenser blade to avoid adhesive stringing.
