Featuring durable backing materials combined with pressure-sensitive rubber adhesive, these tapes provide reliable adhesion, good tensile strength, moisture resistance and excellent conformability.
The product range includes polyethylene film laminated to cloth scrim constructions and embossed vinyl backing options, providing different levels of mechanical strength, flexibility, abrasion resistance and surface protection.
• 3M 3900 – Multi-Purpose Duct Tape: A general-purpose cloth duct tape featuring polyethylene film laminated to cloth scrim and synthetic rubber adhesive. Suitable for general maintenance, bundling, wrapping, sealing, protecting and color coding.
• 3M 3939 – Heavy Duty Duct Tape: A heavy-duty cloth duct tape featuring waterproof polyethylene-coated cloth backing and rubber adhesive. Designed for demanding maintenance, repair, construction, insulation splicing and moisture-resistant sealing.
• 3M 6969 – Extra Heavy Duty Duct Tape: An industrial-strength duct tape featuring abrasion-resistant polyethylene film over dense cloth scrim and aggressive rubber adhesive. Suitable for heavy-duty bundling, reinforcing, sealing, patching and industrial repair.
• 3M 3903 – Vinyl Duct Tape: A general-purpose duct tape featuring embossed vinyl backing and rubber adhesive. Offers excellent flexibility, easy hand tearability and moisture protection for color coding, identification, bundling and temporary repairs.
Performance Features
1. Durable Backing Construction
Different backing materials are available to meet varying industrial application requirements.
Polyethylene Film over Cloth Scrim: Provides good tensile strength, moisture resistance and mechanical durability for general and heavy-duty applications.
Dense Cloth Scrim Reinforcement: Offers enhanced mechanical strength and abrasion resistance for demanding industrial operations.
Embossed Vinyl Backing: Provides flexibility, conformability, moisture protection and easy hand tearability for general-purpose applications.
2. Strong Rubber Adhesion
The rubber pressure-sensitive adhesive provides quick initial adhesion and reliable holding power on many common surfaces, including metal, plastic, wood and other suitable substrates.
Different adhesive constructions are available to meet varying requirements for initial tack, holding power and removal performance.
3. Excellent Conformability
The flexible backing allows the tape to conform to curved, irregular and uneven surfaces, helping maintain good contact and reduce edge lifting during application.
4. Moisture & Water Resistance
The polyethylene film and embossed vinyl backing provide moisture resistance, helping protect surfaces and maintain tape bonding in humid environments and suitable sealing applications.
5. High Tensile & Tear Strength
The cloth scrim reinforcement provides good tensile strength and resistance to tearing, making these tapes suitable for bundling, wrapping, reinforcing and securing materials.
6. Excellent Abrasion Resistance
The durable backing materials help resist everyday scuffing, wear and surface abrasion, supporting reliable performance in industrial maintenance and construction environments.
7. Easy Hand Tearability
The cloth-reinforced and embossed vinyl constructions allow convenient hand tearing without requiring cutting tools, making the tapes suitable for quick repairs and on-site maintenance.
8. Multiple Colors & Identification
Selected grades are available in multiple colors for color coding, process identification, equipment marking, hazard highlighting and general industrial organization.
9. Clean Removal on Suitable Surfaces
Selected grades are designed to provide clean removal from suitable indoor surfaces within specified application periods, helping reduce adhesive residue and cleanup work during temporary installations and maintenance.
