At 3 mil thick, the silver BOPP backing is highly conformable, allowing it to wrap around curved and irregular duct surfaces without lifting. The cold-weather acrylic adhesive bonds on contact to fiberglass, foam, metal, and fibrous duct materials. Rated for service from -40 degrees F to 185 degrees F, the tape maintains its hold in high-humidity environments and extreme temperature swings. HVAC technicians and sheet-metal contractors rely on it for code-compliant duct sealing on residential and light-commercial systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tape is primarily used for sealing and securing flexible air ducts and air connectors in residential and commercial HVAC installations. The UL181B-FX listing makes it appropriate for flexible duct closure systems where code-compliant closure materials are required. Recommended applications include sealing flexible air ducts, sealing air connectors, and securing flex duct terminations. The UV-resistant formulation also supports installs in attic spaces and other areas with elevated UV exposure. The UL181B-FX rating is printed directly on the tape exterior for easy field identification during inspection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUL181B-FX listed for flexible air duct and air connector closure systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3 mil bi-axially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) backing for strength and conformability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCold-weather acrylic adhesive performs from -40 degrees F to 185 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUV resistant construction suitable for attic and exposed-duct installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAdheres to fiberglass, foam, metal, and fibrous duct materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUL rating printed on tape exterior for quick visual identification during inspection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for sealing and closure of flexible air ducts and air connectors where UL181B-FX listed tape is specified.

Power down the air handler and verify the system is de-pressurized before applying tape to duct connections. Surfaces should be clean, dry, and free of dust or grease to ensure full adhesive contact. Apply firm hand pressure across the entire tape surface after placement to activate the pressure-sensitive adhesive bond.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eListing\u003c\/strong\u003e: UL181B-FX\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBacking Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bi-axially oriented polypropylene (BOPP)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBacking Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 mil\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdhesive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cold-weather pressure-sensitive acrylic\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.88 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 119.96 yards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eService Temperature Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: -40 degrees F to 185 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUV Resistant\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 00750351159963\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3M\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7100043760\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"3M","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51344328196402,"sku":"7100043760","price":490.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310523891.jpg?v=1782033400","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/3m-7100043760-ul181b-fx-polypropylene-duct-tape-1-88in-x-119-96yd","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
