Premium industrial-grade polyethylene tape with flexible conformable backing, rubber adhesive, and excellent temperature and chemical resistance for sealing, coding, and protection applications.
3M™ Polyethylene Tape 483 is a premium industrial-grade conformable tape designed for a wide variety of general purpose applications including sealing, holding, coding, moisture proofing and protecting. This versatile tape features an extremely flexible polyethylene backing that enables it to stretch and conform seamlessly to textured and irregular surfaces, providing superior coverage and adhesion. 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.
The polyethylene backing offers excellent low water vapor transmission rate and provides outstanding solvent and alkali resistance, making it suitable for demanding industrial environments. This resilient tape maintains its flexibility and adhesion across a wide temperature range from -20°F to 170°F, allowing for both indoor and outdoor applications. The white color variant provides vivid appearance and smooth backing for excellent glossy finish, while the black variant offers exceptional UV resistance for outdoor use up to 12 months. Available in a convenient 48 inch width with 36 yard length on a 3 inch core, this tape is suitable for automotive, general industrial, MRO, military and government, specialty vehicles, and transportation applications.
With 300% elongation at break and 10 lb/in tensile strength, this high-performance tape delivers reliable performance in sealing containers, separating dissimilar metals, decorative and safety marking, color coding, nuclear power plant maintenance, and corrosion-sensitive applications. The tape meets MIL STD 2041D(SH), ASTM D3330, ASTM D3652, and ASTM D3759 specifications, ensuring compliance with industry standards. With an 18-month shelf life and engineered for industrial/occupational use only, this tape represents a trusted solution for professional applications.
