3M 7010375090 Polyethylene Film Tape 483 White 2in X 36yd

Product Description

The 3M 7010375090 is a white polyethylene film tape in the 3M 483 series, measuring 2 inches wide by 36 yards long with a 5.3 mil total thickness. It features a conformable polyethylene backing bonded to a rubber-based adhesive. The low sulfur and low halogen content makes it suitable for sensitive applications including electroplating masking and printed circuit board work. The tape remains flexible down to -20 degrees F, allowing it to perform in cold storage and outdoor environments. It is typically applied by maintenance technicians, electronics assemblers, and industrial production personnel.

This tape is used across a range of industrial and light commercial applications. Common uses include general container sealing, electroplating bath masking, printed circuit board masking, silicone chip holding during processing, decorative banding, safety marking, and color coding. Its conformability allows it to wrap around irregular surfaces without lifting at edges, making it practical for masking contoured parts or bundling components during assembly or transit.

Key Features

• 5.3 mil polyethylene backing provides puncture resistance and conformability
• Rubber adhesive with low sulfur and low halogen content for use in sensitive electroplating and electronics applications
• Remains flexible to -20 degrees F for cold-environment performance
• Good solvent resistance helps maintain bond integrity during chemical processing
• Conformable construction follows curved and irregular surfaces
• Suitable for safety marking, color coding, and decorative applications in addition to masking

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose polyethylene film tape for industrial masking, sealing, and marking applications across electronics assembly, plating operations, and production environments.

Installation Notes

Surface should be clean, dry, and free of oils or dust before application to ensure full adhesive contact. Apply firm hand pressure along the length of the tape to seat the adhesive. When used for electroplating or chemical masking, confirm tape edges are fully sealed to prevent solution migration. Remove tape promptly after the process is complete to reduce the risk of adhesive transfer.
