Premium 3M repulpable double-coated splicing tape for paper mill applications with high shear strength, heat resistance to 400°F, and FDA compliance for reliable temporary bonding.
The 3M™ Repulpable Double Coated Tape R3227B is a premium temporary splicing tape engineered specifically for paper mill web processing applications. This 3.5 mil double-coated splicing tape features a tissue carrier backing with repulpable adhesive designed to deliver exceptional performance across all splice types including flying, overlap, butt, and general purpose splicing. The tape is constructed with a thin, porous tissue backing that allows optimal adhesive penetration while maintaining engineered strength for reliable performance in demanding paper processing environments.
This industrial-grade splicing tape is engineered to provide high shear strength, high tack adhesive, and excellent heat resistance up to 400°F (200°C), making it ideal for both coated and uncoated paper applications. The repulpable adhesive prevents broke contamination from non-repulpable splice materials, ensuring clean pulping processes and meeting stringent TAPPI UM-213 standards. The blue color identification helps operators quickly identify the tape type in fast-paced mill environments. Each roll measures 12mm wide by 55 meters long and comes packaged in sealed plastic bags to maintain consistent moisture content.
Designed for core starting, roll closing, and temporary pull-through splicing applications, this tape delivers reliable performance across all climates from cold, dry conditions to hot, humid environments. The FDA-compliant formulation meets regulations for repulpable tape and complies with 21 CFR 176.170 standards for paper and paperboard components in contact with aqueous and fatty foods. The convenient paper liner backing makes the tape easy to handle and apply, while the RTA500 compatible hand-held dispenser ensures efficient application in production settings.
