Premium repulpable double-coated splicing tape for paper mill processing with high shear strength, heat resistance to 400°F, and FDA compliance for temporary splicing applications.
3M™ Repulpable Web Processing Double Coated Tape R3227 is a premium temporary splicing tape engineered specifically for paper mill processing applications. This 3.5 mil double-coated tape features a tissue carrier backing and repulpable adhesive system designed to deliver exceptional shear strength, high tack, and outstanding heat resistance up to 400°F/200°C. The tape is ideal for core starting, roll closing, and temporary splicing operations on both coated and uncoated papers and cellulosic materials.
The repulpable material prevents broke contamination from non-repulpable splice materials, making it an environmentally responsible choice for paper processing operations. The tissue backing is thin and porous, allowing optimal adhesive penetration into the sheet while maintaining engineered strength for every type of splice including flying, overlap, butt, and general purpose applications. Mounted on a paper liner for easy handling and application, this tape ensures fast, easy, and reliable core starting with consistent performance across all climatic conditions from cold and dry to hot and humid environments.
This product is FDA compliant and meets TAPPI UM-213 procedure A standards, as well as FDA compliance requirements under 21 CFR 176.170 for components of paper and paperboard in contact with aqueous and fatty foods. The tape is packaged in sealed plastic bags to maintain constant moisture content of unused tape, ensuring reliable performance throughout its shelf life. Designed exclusively for industrial and occupational use in paper mills and converting operations.
