Premium metalized polyester film tape with mirror-like silver finish, pressure-sensitive acrylic adhesive, and low emissivity properties for industrial splicing and visibility applications.
3M™ Metalized Film Tape 8437 is a premium industrial-grade adhesive tape featuring a metalized polyester backing with mirror-like finish on both sides. This specialized tape combines the advantages of metal tape without the associated weight, making it ideal for splicing, web applications, and tasks requiring high visibility and low emissivity properties. The tape is constructed with a thin, high-tensile strength polyester film coated with metalized material on both sides, providing excellent conductivity and maintaining a bright, reflective appearance for up to 3 months.
The tape features a pressure-sensitive acrylic adhesive that grabs on contact and holds securely across a wide temperature range from -60°F (-50°C) to 300°F (150°C). With a total thickness of 2.1 mil and width of 2 inches, this tape meets low-caliper requirements ensuring it won't interfere with most machinery processes. Each roll measures 144 yards in length and is mounted on a silicone-coated release liner for convenient handling, die-cutting, and large-area applications.
This industrial-use-only product comes in cases of 24 rolls and is recommended for splice detection, applications requiring reflectivity and low emissivity, conductive surface requirements, and decorating and identifying applications. The tape's abrasion resistance protects surfaces from wear and rough handling, while its 12-month shelf life ensures reliable performance. Perfect for automotive, appliance, general industrial, military, government, print, specialty vehicle, and transportation applications.
