3M 7010302255 Glass Cloth Tape 398FR Flame Retardant 3x36yd

Product Description

The 3M 7010302255 is a white glass cloth tape with an acrylic adhesive backing, designed for applications that demand high adhesion, abrasion resistance, and verified flame retardant performance. Sold as the 398FR, this tape meets Federal Aviation Regulation (FAR) flame retardancy requirements, making it suitable for aircraft maintenance and repair environments where fire-resistance compliance is mandatory. The glass cloth construction provides a durable, dimensionally stable carrier, while the acrylic adhesive delivers reliable bonding to a range of surfaces. Each roll measures 3 inches wide by 36 yards long and weighs 1.99 pounds. Licensed A&P mechanics, MRO facilities, and industrial maintenance crews are the primary installers of this product.

This tape is used in aircraft maintenance and repair applications where flame retardant sealing, bundling, or surface protection is required. It is also applicable in industrial and commercial settings that require a high-adhesion, abrasion-resistant tape with flame retardant properties. The skip-slit liner format supports clean, controlled dispensing during installation. Typical use cases include sealing, tabbing, and surface protection tasks that require a tape compliant with FAR flame retardancy standards.

Key Features

• Meets FAR flame retardancy requirements for aircraft maintenance applications
• Glass cloth backing provides abrasion resistance and dimensional stability
• Acrylic adhesive delivers high-adhesion bonding to varied surfaces
• White finish for visual identification in multi-tape work environments
• Skip-slit liner for controlled, clean tape dispensing
• 3-inch width by 36-yard length per roll

Compatibility

Designed for aircraft maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) applications requiring FAR-compliant flame retardant tape, as well as industrial sealing and surface protection tasks requiring a glass cloth carrier with acrylic adhesive.

Installation Notes

Application should be performed by qualified maintenance personnel in accordance with applicable FAA regulations, facility maintenance manuals, and relevant safety protocols. Ensure the bonding surface is clean, dry, and free of oils or contaminants before applying the tape for maximum adhesion. Do not stretch the tape during application, as this can compromise the glass cloth backing and reduce adhesive contact area. Remove the skip-slit liner carefully to avoid contaminating the adhesive surface prior to application.
