3M 7000096087 Bi-directional Filament Tape 8959 Clear 75mm X 50m

Product Description

The 3M 7000096087 is a clear bi-directional filament tape built on a polypropylene film backing reinforced with glass yarn filaments running in both directions. The synthetic rubber resin adhesive bonds aggressively to corrugated, plastic, and metal surfaces. Tensile strength is rated at 150 pounds per inch of width, making this tape suitable for demanding applications where standard packaging tape fails. It is used by distribution center personnel, warehouse teams, and trades professionals who need a reliable, high-strength strapping solution without metal banding equipment.

This tape is designed for heavy-duty box closure, unitizing, bundling, and reinforcing applications. The bi-directional glass yarn construction resists tearing along both the length and width of the tape, which is critical when securing irregular loads or reinforcing cartons that will be stacked or palletized. The clear backing allows labels and markings to remain visible through the tape. It is sold by the roll and is appropriate for both manual hand-application and light fixture dispensers used in shipping and receiving operations.

Key Features

• Bi-directional glass yarn filaments provide 150 pounds per inch tensile strength in both directions
• Clear polypropylene backing keeps labels and print visible beneath the tape
• Synthetic rubber resin adhesive bonds to corrugated, plastic, and metal surfaces
• Suited for heavy-duty box closure, strapping, bundling, and load reinforcing
• 75mm wide format covers wide seams and irregular surfaces in a single pass

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose bi-directional filament strapping tape for use in packaging, warehousing, and distribution applications requiring high tensile strength in both the longitudinal and transverse directions.

Installation Notes

Apply to clean, dry surfaces for best adhesion. A hand dispenser or tape gun rated for filament tape is recommended for consistent tension and clean cuts. Avoid stretching the tape during application, as this can reduce effective bond strength. No special tools or trade licenses are required for standard packaging use.
