Industrial-grade polyethylene tape with rubber adhesive, 2 in x 36 yd, conformable to irregular surfaces, excellent UV and chemical resistance, -20°F to 200°F temperature range
3M™ Polyethylene Tape 483 is a premium industrial-grade adhesive tape designed for a wide variety of general purpose applications including sealing, holding, coding, moisture proofing and protecting. This conformable tape features an extremely flexible polyethylene backing that stretches and conforms easily to textured and irregular surfaces, providing a tight seal around complex geometries. The tape is coated with a high-performance rubber adhesive that bonds well to most surfaces and removes cleanly without leaving residue, making it ideal for temporary and permanent applications.
Constructed with polyethylene film backing that has a low water vapor transmission rate, this tape provides excellent solvent and alkali resistance, making it suitable for corrosion-sensitive applications and nuclear power plant maintenance. The black version offers exceptional UV resistance and can be used outdoors for up to 12 months. With an elongation at break of 300%, this tape maintains flexibility and adhesion across a wide temperature range from -20°F to 200°F, ensuring reliable performance in demanding industrial environments.
Each roll measures 2 inches wide by 36 yards long with a 5.0 mil thickness, and comes in a convenient 24 roll per case packaging for industrial and occupational use. The tape features a smooth backing that provides excellent glossy appearance with vivid black color, making it suitable for decorative, safety marking and color coding applications. This product meets multiple industry specifications including MIL STD 2041D(SH), ASTM D3330, ASTM D3652, and ASTM D3759, ensuring compliance with stringent industrial standards.
