3M 7100028055 Double Coated Repulpable Splicing Tape

Product Description

The 3M 7100028055 is a repulpable double coated splicing tape designed for temporary paper splicing operations in paper mill and web processing environments. The tape features a thin, porous tissue backing that allows adhesive to penetrate the paper sheet, delivering reliable shear strength across multiple splice types including flying, overlap, butt, and general-purpose splices. It measures 0.95 inches wide and 55 meters long per roll. High heat resistance up to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) makes it suitable for a range of printing and processing applications. Licensed paper mill technicians and web press operators are the primary installers and users of this product.

This tape is applied in paper mill and commercial printing environments where temporary splices must hold under tension and thermal stress without contaminating the repulping process. The repulpable backing and adhesive system are engineered to break down cleanly during repulping, preventing broke contamination that non-repulpable materials would introduce. It is suited for use on a variety of paper substrates encountered in roll-to-roll web processing lines.

Key Features

• Repulpable backing and adhesive prevent broke contamination during the repulping process
• Thin, porous tissue backing promotes adhesive penetration into the paper sheet for a stronger bond
• High shear strength adhesive bonds reliably to a variety of paper substrates
• Heat resistant up to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for use in printing and converting applications
• Packaged in sealed plastic bags to maintain consistent moisture content of unused tape
• Supports flying, overlap, butt, and general-purpose splice configurations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style temporary splicing solution for paper mill and web processing operations requiring repulpable splice tape on roll-to-roll paper handling equipment.

Installation Notes

Application is performed by trained paper mill or press room personnel familiar with web splicing procedures. Ensure the splice area is clean and free of dust, debris, or excess moisture before applying the tape. Follow the equipment manufacturer's recommended splice procedures for flying or stationary splices. Store unused rolls in the original sealed packaging to preserve adhesive performance and moisture balance.
