3M 7100139310 Performance Plus Duct Tape 8979 Black

Product Description

The 3M 7100139310 is a heavy-duty black duct tape engineered for both permanent and temporary bonding applications in indoor and outdoor environments. Built on a 12.1 mil thick construction, the tape delivers a robust, conformable hold across a range of surfaces while remaining removable with little or no adhesive residue from most opaque surfaces for up to 6 months after application. The UV-resistant backing withstands outdoor exposure for up to one year, making it a reliable choice for HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general trade contractors who need a tape that performs across varying conditions without leaving a mess on removal.

This tape is suited for duct sealing, bundling, patching, and protective wrapping tasks in residential and commercial settings. Its dual-use design — permanent where needed, cleanly removable where preferred — makes it practical for temporary equipment setups, jobsite protection applications, and short-term sealing work. Each roll measures 72mm wide by 54.8 meters long, providing substantial coverage per roll. It is sold in a minimum quantity of 12 rolls per order.

Key Features

• Removable with little or no adhesive residue from most opaque surfaces up to 6 months after application
• UV-resistant backing rated for up to one year of outdoor exposure
• 12.1 mil thick construction for durability and conformability
• Suitable for both permanent and temporary bonding applications
• 72mm x 54.8m roll size provides high coverage per unit
• Black finish for use on opaque surfaces where color matching or light blocking is needed

Compatibility

Designed for general-purpose duct sealing, patching, and wrapping applications in residential and commercial HVAC, plumbing, and construction trades where a heavy-duty, UV-resistant tape is required.

Installation Notes

Surface preparation is critical — clean and dry surfaces before application to ensure proper adhesion. For HVAC duct applications, consult local mechanical codes regarding approved sealing methods, as some jurisdictions require mastic or UL-listed tape for pressure-rated duct systems. No special tools are required for application, though a tape dispenser is recommended for clean, consistent cuts on long runs. When used for temporary applications, remove within the 6-month window to take advantage of the clean-removal characteristic.
