Fiberglass-reinforced water-activated paper tape for secure carton sealing. High-tack adhesive creates tamper-evident seals on boxes up to 35 pounds. Easy to apply by hand, economical solution for shipping and distribution.
3M™ Water Activated Paper Tape 6146 is a fiberglass-reinforced, medium-duty water-activated tape specifically designed to simplify packing operations and provide secure carton sealing solutions. This economical packaging tape features a high-tack, water-activated adhesive system that ensures corrugated boxes stay sealed throughout shipping, handling, and storage. The tape is constructed from 30-lb. kraft paper reinforced with fiberglass, making it ideal for sealing corrugated boxes weighing up to 35 pounds.
When moistened, the adhesive interacts with porous surfaces to form a powerful, secure bond that creates a tamper-evident seal. The tape easily and quickly conforms over carton edges and corners to form secure C-clip and L-clip seals. Its paper construction is easy to handle, making it ideal for hand applications, and boxes are sealed securely yet easy to open without cutting tools. This tape performs exceptionally well on recycled cartons and non-unitized loads across various environments and applications.
The 6146 tape is recommended for use in numerous industries including food and beverage, medical and pharmaceutical, paper, print, electronics, and shipping and distribution centers. Available in natural kraft color, this tape comes in a convenient 6-inch width by 4,500-foot length pallet pack format. 3M also offers semi-automatic application equipment to increase efficiencies and help speed up packaging and carton sealing processes for greater productivity.
