Splicing Tapes
415 • 465 • 469 • 9420 • 9497 • 9499
Features
• The red color of 3M™ Splicing Tape 9420 may cause some discoloration. The
user should evaluate the tape to determine whether it is fit for the user’s particular
purpose.
• 3M™ Splicing Tape 465 meets the requirements of U.S. Government specification
MIL-P-19834B, Type I.
• 3M™ Splicing Tape 469 has high initial adhesion, high contact heat resistance
and good adhesion to a variety of paper grades and thicknesses and is ideal for
bonding a variety of similar or dissimilar materials.
Application Techniques
• Bond strength is dependent upon the amount of adhesive-to-surface contact
developed. Firm application pressure helps develop better adhesive contact and
improve bond strength.
• To obtain optimum adhesion, the bonding surfaces must be clean, dry, and well
unified.
• Ideal tape application temperature range is 70°F to 100°F (21°C to 38°C). Initial
tape application to surfaces at temperatures below 50°F (10°C) is not recommended
because the adhesive becomes too firm to adhere readily. However, once properly
applied, low temperature holding is generally satisfactory.
Application Ideas
• 3M™ Splicing Tapes 415 and 465 can be used for high-speed flying splices and
zero speed splices on most grades of paper such as newsprint, clay coated,
corrugated stocks.
• 3M tape 469 is a high tack, high temperature double coated tissue tape which is
light red in color for visible splices. The medium firm adhesive features good
quick stick for high-speed flying splices on most grades of paper and excellent
heat resistance for many high temperature drying ovens.
• 3M tape 9420 can be used for flying splices on paper and film where easy visibility
for removal of spliced area is desirable.
• 3M™ Splicing Tape 9497 is designed for resistance to high temperatures and is
ideal for splicing many paper medians used by corrugators.
• 3M™ Splicing Tape 9499 is ideal for printers who require especially high drying
temperatures or who utilize long ovens. This specialty tape has extremely high air
heat (oven) resistance and is ideal for zero speed automatic splicing.
