High-performance transparent polyester film tape with solvent-resistant acrylic adhesive. Ideal for aerospace, chemical protection, and critical label applications requiring FAR compliance and temperature resistance from -60°F to 300°F.
3M™ Polyester Film Tape 853 is a high-performance transparent polyester film tape engineered for demanding industrial applications where solvent resistance is critical. Comprised of a strong polyester backing coated with an aggressive acrylic adhesive, this tape delivers exceptional durability and reliability in harsh chemical environments. The transparent backing allows visibility of information protected by the tape, making it ideal for critical label protection applications. With a thin but durable design and low moisture vapor transmission rate, this tape performs reliably in extended use scenarios.
This solvent-resistant tape is specifically designed to withstand exposure to jet engine fuel, hydraulic fluid, lubricating oils, and many other industrial solvents. The tape maintains its performance across a wide temperature range from -60°F (-50°C) to 300°F (150°C), making it suitable for both extreme cold and high-temperature operations. The aggressive acrylic adhesive provides quick stick and excellent long-term holding power, ensuring secure bonding even in challenging conditions.
3M™ Polyester Film Tape 853 meets demanding aerospace and government specifications, including FAR 25.853(a) Appendix F Part I (a)(1)(ii) flammability requirements and Federal Spec. L-T-100 Type 1. With 83% elongation at break and 25 lb/in tensile strength, this tape combines flexibility with strength. Each case contains 48 rolls of 360-yard length, providing substantial coverage for high-volume industrial operations. Ideal for aerospace applications, critical sealing operations, and any application requiring proven chemical resistance and reliability.
