Scotch 7000123469 Filament Strapping Tape 48mm 6.6 Mil

Product Description

The SCOTCH 7000123469 is a transparent filament strapping tape designed for heavy-duty industrial bundling, unitizing, and reinforcement applications. Identified as Tape Number 8981, this tape measures 48 millimeters wide and 6.6 mil thick, with a roll length of 55 meters (approximately 180 feet). The fiberglass filament reinforcement delivers a tensile strength of 380 pounds, making it suited for securing heavy cartons, palletizing loads, and reinforcing packages that must withstand stress during transit and storage. Technicians and warehouse personnel working in industrial supply, HVAC distribution, plumbing supply, and electrical distribution commonly reach for this tape when standard poly or paper strapping is not practical.

This tape is applied in industrial and commercial environments where a strong, conformable, and transparent strapping solution is needed. Typical use cases include bundling pipe, conduit, and duct sections; reinforcing shipping cartons; unitizing multi-component part orders; and securing equipment for transport. The transparent backing keeps labeling visible through the tape, which is useful when tagging parts or bundled assemblies in the field or at a supply house.

Key Features

• 380-pound tensile strength for secure bundling of heavy loads
• Fiberglass filament reinforcement resists tearing and elongation under stress
• Transparent backing keeps labels and markings visible after application
• 48 millimeter width provides broad coverage across carton seams and bundled materials
• 6.6 mil thickness balances conformability with puncture resistance
• 55-meter roll length reduces mid-job roll changes on high-volume tasks

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose industrial filament strapping tape compatible with standard tape dispensers sized for 48 millimeter wide rolls, suitable for use on cardboard, metal, plastic, and wood substrates.

Installation Notes

Apply to clean, dry surfaces for maximum adhesion. Use a dispenser rated for filament or strapping tape to ensure clean cuts and consistent tension across the roll. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling fiberglass filament tape under high tension, as the reinforcing strands can cause skin lacerations if the tape snaps. Avoid stretching the tape excessively during application, as over-tensioning reduces contact area and can compromise the bond.
