3M 7000049202 Silver Duct Tape 1.88in X 50yd 5.8 Mil

Product Description

The 3M 7000049202 is a silver cloth duct tape designed for general-purpose sealing, bundling, patching, and moisture-resistant tape applications. It is constructed with a polyethylene film layer over a cloth scrim backing and bonded with a synthetic rubber adhesive. The tape measures 1.88 inches wide by 50 yards long with a total thickness of 5.8 mils. Adhesion to steel is rated at 58 ounces per inch of width, and tensile strength reaches 16 pounds per inch of width. The roll tears easily by hand without a dispenser. Each roll ships in individual wrap packaging for straightforward identification and handling on the job site.

This tape is suited for HVAC duct sealing, plumbing wrap, general maintenance, and light fabrication tasks in both residential and commercial settings. It performs across a temperature use range of up to 200 degrees F, making it appropriate for applications near warm air ducts, pipes, and mechanical equipment. HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general maintenance professionals commonly keep this tape in their service kits for fast, reliable field repairs and temporary sealing work.

Key Features

• Polyethylene film over cloth scrim construction provides conformability and tear resistance
• Synthetic rubber adhesive bonds to a wide range of surfaces including steel, plastic, and painted metal
• Hand-tearable design eliminates the need for scissors or a dispenser
• Moisture-resistant construction suitable for damp or humid environments
• Rated for use up to 200 degrees F
• Individual roll wrap packaging for easy inventory identification

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose cloth duct tape suitable for HVAC ductwork sealing, bundling, patching, and moisture-resistant wrap applications in residential and commercial mechanical systems.

Installation Notes

Surface preparation is critical for maximum adhesion — clean and dry the substrate before application. Apply firm hand pressure across the full tape width to ensure proper bond. When used on HVAC duct assemblies, verify that local mechanical codes permit cloth tape for the intended application, as some code jurisdictions require UL 181-listed foil tape for permanent duct sealing.
