Description
Constructed with an extremely conformable backing, 3M polyethylene tape 483 is designed to be used in a wide variety of general purpose applications including sealing, holding, coding, moisture proofing and protecting. This tape is coated with a rubber adhesive that bonds well and removes cleanly from most surfaces. 3M polyethylene tape 483 is available in a variety of vivid colors. Our 3M polyethylene tape 483 stretches easily and is highly conformable for a tight seal over and around irregular surfaces. The smooth backing provides good solvent and alkali resistance. Coated with a rubber adhesive, this tape bonds well to many surfaces and typically removes cleanly. This resilient tape can be used in outdoor applications and temperatures as low -20 deg F/-29 deg C to 170 deg F/77 deg C. The black version of this tape will remove cleanly from most surfaces in outdoor applications from up to one year.
