Professional-grade weather-resistant film tape with Tedlar PVF backing, acrylic adhesive, and exceptional durability for outdoor sealing and protection applications across construction, aerospace, and military industries.
3M Weather Resistant Film Tape 838 is a premium industrial-grade adhesive tape featuring a strong Tedlar PVF film backing combined with a solvent-resistant acrylic adhesive. This white tape measures 4 inches wide by 72 yards long with a total thickness of 3.4 mil, making it ideal for long-term outdoor applications requiring exceptional durability and weather resistance. The 2.1 mil Tedlar PVC film backing provides increased strength without adding bulk, while the acrylic adhesive offers immediate bonding and maintains superior adhesion even under extreme temperature variations ranging from -100°F to 225°F.
This versatile tape is specifically engineered for demanding applications in building and construction, aerospace, signage, military, and window and door industries. It delivers outstanding resistance to weathering, mechanical stress, and a wide variety of chemicals, solvents, and staining agents. The formulation contains no plasticizers, contributing to excellent long-term aging properties and reliable performance over extended periods. The tape remains tough and flexible across a broad temperature range, making it suitable for both extreme cold and heat exposure scenarios.
Each case contains 12 rolls of this professional-grade tape, meeting rigorous ASTM specifications including ASTM D3330, ASTM D3652, and ASTM D3759. The acrylic adhesive is resistant to jet engine fuel, hydraulic fluid, and lubricating oils, making it an excellent choice for aerospace and military applications. With an 18-month shelf life and solvent-resistant properties, this tape provides reliable performance for critical sealing, wrapping, and protection applications in outdoor exposure environments.
