3M 7010045188 Polyester Film Tape 853 Transparent 2.2 Mil

Product Description

The 3M 7010045188 is a transparent polyester film tape designed for demanding industrial and trade applications where solvent resistance and holding strength are critical. The tape features a 2.2 mil polyester film backing paired with a solvent-resistant acrylic adhesive system. This construction resists undercutting and adhesive softening when exposed to chemicals and solvents, making it suitable for environments where standard tapes would degrade. The roll measures 0.75 inches wide by 360 yards long, providing extended coverage per roll. Technicians and industrial maintenance professionals typically specify this tape where a thin, strong, chemically resistant film is required.

This tape is used primarily for high-tension butt splicing operations across manufacturing, printing, and industrial maintenance environments. The acrylic adhesive provides durable bond retention even under mechanical stress and solvent exposure. It is well-suited for splicing film webs, securing labels, and masking applications where solvent contact is a concern. The transparent film allows visual inspection of the bonded area without removing the tape.

Key Features

• 2.2 mil polyester film backing provides thin-profile strength and dimensional stability
• Solvent-resistant acrylic adhesive resists undercutting and softening from chemical exposure
• Transparent film allows inspection of the bonded surface without tape removal
• 360-yard roll length reduces roll changes in high-volume splicing operations
• Designed for high-tension butt splicing where bond integrity under stress is required

Compatibility

Designed for use in high-tension butt splicing applications and other industrial bonding or masking operations where solvent and chemical resistance are required from a thin polyester film tape.

Installation Notes

Apply to clean, dry surfaces free of dust, oil, and contaminants to achieve full adhesive contact. This tape is typically applied by hand or with a tape dispenser; no special tools are required for standard splicing work. Follow applicable facility safety procedures when working in environments with chemical or solvent exposure. Store unused rolls away from direct heat and moisture to maintain adhesive performance.
