3M 7100049350 Splittable Flying Splice Tape R7359 Blue

Product Description

The 3M 7100049350 is a double-coated, repulpable paper splicing tape designed for flying splice applications where a standard break-open force is required. The tape is engineered to split into two separate single-coated tapes at the moment of splice activation, allowing a new roll to be joined to a running web without stopping the line. Weighing 1.48 pounds per roll, it is suited for paper and paperboard converting operations where repulpability of the adhesive system is a production or recycling requirement. This product is handled and installed by converting line operators and press technicians working in web-fed printing and packaging environments.

This tape is used in flying splice and zero-speed splice setups on web-fed converting equipment, including paper mills, corrugated board lines, and commercial printing operations. The repulpable adhesive construction supports facilities where spliced material enters a repulping process, preventing adhesive contamination of the fiber furnish. The blue color provides visual identification of the splice zone during roll changes and post-process inspection.

Key Features

• Splits into two single-coated tapes at standard break-open force for clean flying splice activation
• Double-coated construction bonds the expiring roll tail to the new roll lead in a single tape application
• Repulpable adhesive system compatible with paper recycling and repulping processes
• Blue colorway provides clear visual identification of splice location on the web
• Paper carrier backing suitable for use in paper and paperboard converting lines

Compatibility

Designed for flying splice applications on web-fed converting and printing equipment where a standard break-open force and repulpable adhesive are required. No specific machine or system compatibility was provided in the product data.

Installation Notes

Application is performed by converting line operators following the equipment manufacturer's splice preparation procedure. The splice zone and roll surfaces should be clean and free of dust or debris before tape application. Follow all lockout/tagout procedures applicable to the specific converting line when preparing the splice at reduced or zero line speed. Do not substitute this tape in applications requiring a non-standard break-open force without verifying compatibility with the splice system design.
