Professional-grade polyethylene tape with rubber adhesive for industrial sealing, marking, and protection applications. Flexible, conformable backing with excellent solvent and alkali resistance. Temperature range -20°F to 170°F. 36 individually wrapped rolls per case.
3M™ Polyethylene Tape 483 is a premium quality industrial adhesive tape designed for a wide variety of general purpose applications including sealing, holding, coding, moisture proofing, and protecting. Constructed with an extremely conformable polyethylene backing, this tape stretches easily and conforms to textured and irregular surfaces for a tight seal. The tape features a rubber adhesive that bonds well to most surfaces and typically removes cleanly without residue. Available in multiple vivid colors, the 483 tape is ideal for decorative, safety marking, and color coding applications across various industries.
The polyethylene backing provides excellent low water vapor transmission rate and offers superior solvent and alkali resistance, making it suitable for demanding industrial environments. This high-performance tape maintains its flexibility and adhesion at temperatures ranging from -20°F (-29°C) to 170°F (77°C), allowing for reliable performance in both extreme cold and heat conditions. The black version of this tape demonstrates excellent UV resistance and can be used in outdoor applications for up to 12 months without degradation.
Each case contains 36 individually wrapped rolls, providing convenient packaging for storage and distribution. With a tensile strength of 10 lb/in and 300% elongation at break, this tape delivers superior durability and flexibility. The product meets multiple industry standards including MIL STD 2041D(SH), ASTM D3330, ASTM D3652, and ASTM D3759, ensuring compliance with strict industrial specifications. Ideal for automotive, general industrial, MRO, military and government, specialty vehicles, and transportation applications.
