3M 7100034988 Scotch 373 Sealing Tape Tan 2.83 in

Product Description

The 3M 7100034988 is Scotch 373 box sealing tape, a high-performance polypropylene packaging tape engineered for heavy-duty carton closure. The synthetic rubber adhesive bonds securely to a wide range of substrates, including recycled fiberboard and liner paper. At 2.83 inches wide, it provides broad coverage per pass and conforms around box edges and irregular surfaces to maintain a tight seal. Packaging professionals and warehouse operations rely on this tape for single-parcel shipments and high-volume automated line applications where consistent, reliable closure is required.

Scotch 373 is suited for sealing medium to heavy-weight corrugated and recycled fiberboard cartons in distribution, fulfillment, and shipping environments. Its easy unwind and smooth dispensing characteristics make it compatible with high-speed automated packaging equipment as well as manual dispensers. Applications include outbound ecommerce shipments, industrial parts packaging, and general carton sealing where abrasion, moisture, or scuffing exposure is expected during transit or storage.

Key Features

• Polypropylene film backing with synthetic rubber adhesive for strong, conformable bonds under stress
• High edge tear and split resistance suited for ecommerce and single-parcel shipments
• Resists abrasion, moisture, chemicals, and scuffing for durable in-transit performance
• Excellent adhesion to recycled liner paper and fiberboard substrates
• Easy unwind and smooth dispensing compatible with high-speed automated packaging lines
• Conforms around box edges and rough surfaces for a secure, gap-free seal

Compatibility

Designed for use on heavy-weight corrugated cartons, recycled fiberboard, and standard box materials in manual and automated carton-sealing applications.

Installation Notes

Apply to clean, dry surfaces free of dust, oil, and loose fibers for maximum adhesion. Ensure box flaps are properly aligned and under slight compression before applying tape across the seam. Use an appropriate tape dispenser to maintain consistent tension and cut length. No special tools or trade licensing are required, but operators on automated lines should confirm tape core size compatibility with dispenser mandrels before loading.
