Industrial-grade transparent polyester tape with solvent-resistant acrylic adhesive, ideal for aerospace and chemical-resistant applications. 48in x 72yd roll with temperature range -60°F to 300°F.
3M™ Polyester Film Tape 853 is a premium industrial-grade transparent polyester tape engineered for demanding applications requiring solvent resistance and durability. Comprised of a strong polyester backing coated with an aggressive acrylic adhesive, this tape delivers exceptional performance in environments exposed to chemicals, fuels, and oils. The transparent backing allows visibility of information protected by the tape, making it ideal for critical label protection applications.
This high-strength tape features a thin 2.2 mil backing that resists tearing and protects surfaces from abrasion while maintaining excellent adhesion across a wide temperature range from -60°F to 300°F. The tape is specifically formulated to withstand exposure to jet engine fuel, hydraulic fluid, and lubricating oils, making it essential for aerospace, automotive, and industrial applications. With a tensile strength of 25 lb/in and 83% elongation at break, this tape provides reliable performance in critical sealing and protection applications.
Meeting several U.S. government and aerospace specifications including ASTM D3330, ASTM D3652, and ASTM D3759, the 3M Polyester Film Tape 853 also complies with flammability requirements of FAR 25.853(a) Appendix F Part I. The low moisture vapor transmission rate of the polyester backing ensures extended use in demanding environments. Each roll measures 48 inches wide by 72 yards long, providing ample coverage for industrial operations. This tape is designed exclusively for industrial and occupational use and meets the rigorous standards required by aerospace, appliance, automotive, construction, electronics, military, and transportation industries.
