High-performance engineered splicing tape for film and foil webs with fiber-free construction, synthetic rubber/acrylic adhesive, and innovative splitting layer technology for consistent high-speed printing applications.
3M™ Splittable Flying Splice Tape 8387 is a high-performance engineered adhesive tape specifically designed for film and foil web splicing during high-speed printing and coating applications. This professional-grade splicing solution features a sophisticated synthetic rubber/acrylic adhesive system developed to handle a variety of low surface energy (LSE) and high slip materials including LDPE, BOPP, and PET films. The tape is engineered with an innovative splitting layer that divides into two distinct single-sided tapes with independently tinted under and over laminates (pink and gray layers), providing clear visual identification during the splicing process.
The 8387 tape delivers exceptional performance through its fiber-free construction, which eliminates the risk of tape fragments or butterfly tabs breaking off and contaminating rollers or CI drums. With a total thickness of 7 mil (0.19 mm) and a width of 50 mm, each roll provides 50 meters of reliable splicing capability. The full adhesive backing ensures improved handling characteristics and enables easy, clean splice setup without requiring additional glue or tabs. The purple tint enhances visibility during converting operations, making it easier for operators to monitor the splicing process and identify splice components.
Designed for industrial flexographic printing, film processing, and film lamination applications, the 3M™ Splittable Flying Splice Tape 8387 significantly reduces downtime by preventing web breaks and eliminating the risk of adhesive contamination on equipment. Each case contains 24 rolls, making it ideal for high-volume production environments. This tape represents decades of 3M innovation in printing technology, combining reliability, efficiency, and consistent performance at high speeds. For industrial and occupational use only.
