Professional UL181B-FX certified duct tape with cold weather acrylic adhesive, UV resistant BOPP backing, performs -40°F to 185°F, ideal for flexible duct sealing and HVAC applications
The 3M™ Venture Tape™ UL181B-FX Polypropylene Duct Tape 1599B is a professional-grade flexible duct closure tape designed for sealing and securing air ducts and connectors in demanding environments. This 3 mil UV-resistant tape features a bi-axially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) backing coated with a specially formulated cold weather acrylic adhesive system that performs exceptionally across an extreme temperature range of -40°F (-40°C) to 185°F (85°C). The tape is UL181B-FX listed and printed on the exterior for easy identification and compliance verification, making it an ideal choice for HVAC professionals and industrial applications.
This versatile duct tape excels at adhering to curved and irregular surfaces due to its highly conformable backing, delivering excellent air connector sealing and closure properties. The acrylic adhesive bonds immediately on contact to multiple materials including fiberglass, foam, metal, and fibrous duct materials, while maintaining superior aging properties and resisting lifting and curling over time. With a tensile strength of 32 lbs (56 N/100mm) and 130% elongation at break, this tape provides the durability and flexibility needed for reliable long-term performance in both hot and cold weather environments.
The 3M Venture Tape UL181B-FX comes in a convenient 24 rolls per case format, with each roll measuring 48 mm (1.88 inches) in width and 109.7 meters (119.96 yards) in length. This industrial-grade tape meets or exceeds all UL181B-FX requirements for flexible air duct and connector closure systems, making it the trusted choice for commercial HVAC installations, industrial ductwork applications, and professional sealing projects where performance and compliance are critical.
