3M 7010373212 Double Coated Tape 3 Inch 36 Yd 4 Mil

Product Description

The 3M 7010373212 is a double coated tape designed to deliver a balance of high initial tack and lasting holding power across a wide range of substrates, with particularly strong performance on paper stocks. The tape carries adhesive on both sides of a densified kraft paper liner, which adds dimensional stability and makes handling straightforward during high-speed press operations. At 3 inches wide, 36 yards long, and 4 mil total thickness, it is sized for industrial splicing workflows. Licensed print-shop technicians and press operators are the primary installers.

This tape is engineered for printing and converting applications where reliable splicing is critical. It performs in both zero-speed and flying splice scenarios, where the double-sided adhesion keeps the web aligned and prevents misregistration. Beyond print splicing, the tape bonds well to low and high surface energy substrates, making it useful for general assembly, laminating, and mounting tasks in manufacturing environments. Its resistance to UV exposure and moderate temperature swings supports consistent performance across varied shop conditions.

Key Features

• Double-sided adhesive construction increases dimensional stability for zero-speed and flying splice operations
• High tack adhesion to most paper stocks and a broad range of low and high surface energy substrates
• 4 mil total thickness provides a defined bond layer suitable for industrial splicing tolerances
• Densified kraft paper liner supports clean, controlled unwind and easy handling
• Good resistance to UV exposure and moderate temperatures with acceptable humidity resistance
• Transparent appearance allows visual alignment during application

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose double coated tape for use in printing, converting, and light industrial assembly applications where paper and mixed-substrate bonding is required.

Installation Notes

Application is typically performed by press operators or assembly technicians without specialized tools. Surfaces should be clean, dry, and free of dust or oils before bonding to achieve full adhesive contact. Firm, even pressure applied across the tape width after placement improves initial adhesion. Avoid stretching the tape during application, as this can reduce holding power and distort the bond line.
