Premium nuclear-grade duct tape with exceptional UV and weather resistance, ideal for demanding industrial applications requiring clean removal and low leachable halides.
3M™ Performance Plus Duct Tape 8979N is a highly specialized, premium-grade duct tape engineered for demanding industrial applications in nuclear power plants, shipbuilding, and steel fabrication industries. This exceptional tape features a distinctive slate blue color for easy identification and is specifically formulated to resist UV exposure, sunlight, and harsh weather conditions for up to 12 months without deterioration. The tape combines a thick rubber adhesive with a fabric-reinforced polyethylene backing, delivering superior adhesion to steel (48 oz/in) and rough surfaces while maintaining the ability to remove cleanly and residue-free from most opaque surfaces for up to six months after application.
Designed for industrial/occupational use only, the 8979N model excels in demanding applications including sealing, holding, identification, protection, high-strength bundling, masking for painting, and temporary repairs. The tape's specialized construction provides curl resistance, moisture resistance, and exceptional conformability to irregular and curved surfaces. With a total thickness of 12.1 mil (0.3 mm) and tensile strength of 36 lb (63 N/cm), it tears cleanly from the roll and is hand-tearable for convenient application. The tape is hand-writable for labeling purposes and complies with MIL-STD-2041D(SH), Notice 2 specifications for low leachable halides and sulfur, making it ideal for sensitive nuclear and military applications.
This premium performance tape operates effectively across a wide temperature range from 40°F to 200°F (4°C to 93°C) and maintains a 24-month shelf life. Each case contains 12 rolls of 54.8 meters (59.93 yards) length and 72 mm (2.83 inches) width, with a 76.2 mm (3 inch) core size. Whether used in nuclear facilities, shipbuilding, stainless steel production, construction, electrical work, marine applications, or military operations, the 3M Performance Plus Duct Tape 8979N delivers consistent, reliable performance where low leachable halides and sulfur are critical requirements.
