The Scotch® Filament Tape 898 is constructed on a clear polypropylene backing, reinforced with glass yarn filaments, with a synthetic rubber resin adhesive.
Strong, Sturdy Design With an increased tensile strength, Scotch® Filament Tape 898 provides an excellent solution for full overlap L-clip box closures, bundling pipe or reinforcing large bulk containers. Constructed with a clear, filament-reinforced, polypropylene backing, this tape is abrasion, moisture, scuff and break resistant, even if nicked or punctured. This sturdy tape dispenses easily without curling for easy application. Its multi-layer synthetic-rubber adhesive system prevents delamination. The synthetic adhesive bonds well to a variety of surfaces commonly used in packaging, such as corrugated cardboard, fiberboard, plastic and metals. Recommended Applications • L-Clip closure • Metal and pipe bundling • High strength reinforcing • Heavy duty strapping The World’s Go-To Source for Filament Tapes Since 1946 3M's line of filament-reinforced tapes and strapping tapes are high strength, reliable and affordable solutions that give you product and package integrity.
