3M 7010312543 Scotch 605 Transparent Packaging Tape

Product Description

The 3M 7010312543 is the Scotch 605 Light Duty Packaging Tape, a transparent polypropylene film tape engineered for general packaging and cold temperature applications. The tape features a 2.5 mil total thickness with a 1.6 mil polypropylene backing that resists moisture, chemicals, and UV exposure. It complies with US FDA 21 CFR 175.105 for indirect food contact, making it suitable for food-adjacent packaging environments. Packaging, shipping, and warehouse personnel commonly apply this tape in distribution centers, cold storage facilities, and light manufacturing operations where reliable carton sealing under variable temperature conditions is required.

Scotch 605 is designed for light duty packaging tasks in both ambient and cold temperature environments. The transparent backing maintains good clarity over time, allowing labels and printed surfaces to remain visible through the tape. The polypropylene film offers conformability and flexibility, which aids adhesion on slightly irregular carton surfaces. This tape is a practical choice for facilities that require FDA-compliant indirect food contact materials in their packaging line.
