Flexible polyethylene tape with rubber adhesive for sealing, coding, and protecting. Yellow color, 1 inch x 36 yard rolls, 5.0 mil thickness. Conforms to irregular surfaces, -20°F to 170°F temperature range. Case of 36 rolls.
3M™ Polyethylene Tape 483 is a versatile industrial-grade 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 tightly to irregular and textured surfaces, making it ideal for applications where flexibility and adaptability are essential. The tape features a rubber adhesive that bonds well to most surfaces and removes cleanly without leaving residue, making it perfect for temporary and semi-permanent applications.
The polyethylene backing provides excellent solvent and alkali resistance with a low water vapor transmission rate, making it suitable for corrosion-sensitive applications and nuclear power plant maintenance. Available in vivid colors including yellow, this tape offers an excellent glossy appearance for color coding, safety marking, and decorative applications. The tape maintains its flexibility and adhesion across a wide temperature range, from -20°F to 170°F, ensuring reliable performance in diverse environmental conditions. Black versions of this tape feature exceptional UV resistance and can be used outdoors for up to 12 months without degradation.
Each case contains 36 rolls of tape, with each roll measuring 1 inch in width and 36 yards in length with a 5.0 mil thickness. This high-performance tape meets multiple industry standards including MIL STD 2041D(SH), ASTM D3330, ASTM D3652, and ASTM D3759, ensuring compliance with rigorous industrial requirements. Ideal for automotive, general industrial, MRO, military and government, specialty vehicle, and transportation applications.
