High Shear Strength for Optimum Splicing
3M Repulpable Web Processing Double Coated Tape R3227 is a 3.5 mil, double coated, repulpable splicing tape designed for a variety of general purpose core starting, pull-through and temporary splicing applications. This tape is comprised of a tissue carrier backing and a repulpable adhesive designed to offer high shear strength, high tack and heat resistance required to perform at temperatures of up to 400?F/200?C. The tissue backing is thin and porous to allow adhesive penetration of sheet, and engineered for optimum strength for every type of splice. Mounted on a paper liner, this tape is easy to handle and apply. 3M Repulpable Web Processing Double Coated Tape R3227 is FDA compliant and complies with regulations for repulpable tape.
