3M 7000048527 Repositionable Double Coated Tape 0.5in X 72yd

Product Description

The 3M 7000048527 is a double coated removable repositionable tape designed for applications that require a strong initial bond on one side and clean, residue-free removal on the other. One side carries 3M Acrylic Adhesive 420, a high-tack acrylic formulated for broad surface adhesion, including plastics, with a bonding temperature range down to 32 degrees F and short-term heat resistance up to 300 degrees F. The opposite side uses 3M Repositionable Acrylic Adhesive 1050, a medium-tack acrylic that holds reliably and releases cleanly without leaving residue. The tape measures 0.5 inches wide by 72 yards long, at 5.8 mil total thickness, and is wound on a 58 lb. polycoated kraft paper liner with a UPVC carrier.

This tape is suited for mounting, splicing, and assembly applications where one bonded surface must remain permanent while the other requires repositionability or clean removal. It is commonly used in light industrial, graphics, signage, and general fabrication settings. The differential adhesive system makes it practical for temporarily securing films, overlays, or substrates to fixtures or panels where repeated positioning adjustments may be needed before final placement.

Key Features

• Differential double-coat construction: high-tack Adhesive 420 on one side, medium-tack repositionable Adhesive 1050 on the other
• Adhesive 420 bonds to plastics and a wide range of surfaces with reliable adhesion down to 32 degrees F
• Short-term heat resistance up to 300 degrees F on the Adhesive 420 side
• Good chemical and shock resistance on the permanent-bond side
• Adhesive 1050 allows clean removal without adhesive transfer or surface damage
• UPVC carrier on a 58 lb. polycoated kraft paper liner for consistent unwind and handling

Compatibility

Designed for general industrial and fabrication use where a differential-tack double coated tape is required. Adhesive 420 is specifically noted for performance on plastic substrates.

Installation Notes

Apply to clean, dry, and dust-free surfaces for best adhesion on both sides. Peel the liner fully before application and press firmly to ensure full contact. For the repositionable Adhesive 1050 side, avoid repeated repositioning on porous or painted surfaces, as adhesion may increase over time. Store unused rolls away from direct heat and humidity to maintain adhesive performance.
