3M™ Polyurethane Protective Tape 8560
- 3M ID B40069124
Details
Highlights
- Tough, thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer has a high shear strength adhesive and resists scratches, tears, erosion and punctures
- Indoor grade polyurethane tape
- Easy to apply and conforms over curved surfaces
- Can be painted over or applied to painted surfaces
- Adheres to a wide variety of substrates and retains a constant level of adhesion over time, yet removes easily when necessary
3M™ Polyurethane Protective Tape 8560 is a 14 mil (0.35 mm), leading-edge erosion protection tape comprised of a tough polyurethane backing. It offers resistance to punctures, tearing and abrasion. This indoor polyurethane tape is qualified to aerospace specifications.
Aircraft need extra protection throughout their performance envelope. Sand and rain erosion can happen quickly, affecting aerodynamics and structural integrity, translating to increased maintenance costs and downtime. 3M™ Polyurethane Protective Tape 8734NA effectively combines performance and convenience for maintaining the integrity of aircraft composite parts. The temperature stable, erosion-resistant polyurethane film provides a durable barrier against impact and erosion damage. It’s designed to be co-cured into the surface of the composite structure during manufacturing where it forms a tough, protective surface that can dramatically reduce maintenance costs, increase up-time and enable safer aircraft.
