3M™ Polyurethane Protective Tape 8734NA is an aerospace-grade protective film designed for use with 3M™ Structural Adhesive Films. This UV stable film protects composite parts from damage caused by high-speed sand, dust and rain. It’s conformable to most surfaces and forms a tough, repairable surface that outperforms paint, coatings and other conventional materials.
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. 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.
