Industrial-grade repulpable double-coated tape for paper mills with high-tack adhesive, TAPPI UM-213 compliance, and FDA food-contact approval for core starting and roll closing applications.
3M™ Repulpable Heavy Duty Double Coated Tape R3287 is a premium white, tissue-backed double-sided tape specifically engineered for industrial paper processing applications. This high-performance tape features a paper carrier coated with a high-tack, high-shear-strength repulpable adhesive that ensures fast, easy, and reliable core starting and roll closing. The tape comes with an easy-release repulpable liner that facilitates seamless operation in manual, semi-automated, and fully automated dispensing systems.
Designed to meet or exceed TAPPI UM-213 procedure A standards, this tape is ideal for core starting, roll closing, temporary splicing, and zero-speed splicing applications in paper converting operations. The repulpable construction eliminates the need to remove splices from waste streams, preventing contamination of paper mill broke and reducing labor costs while increasing the value of waste paper. All adhesive components and backing materials comply with FDA 21 CFR 176.170 and 176.180 indirect food additive regulations, making it suitable for food-grade paper applications.
The tape delivers reliable performance across a broad range of climatic conditions, from cold and dry environments to hot and humid settings. With a maximum operating temperature of 400°F (204°C) for most paper grades, this double-coated tape provides superior adhesion to various paper types and cellulosic materials. The stable product construction ensures consistent performance and improved runnability, making it an essential choice for paper mills and converting operations seeking to enhance productivity and reduce waste.
