3M Water Activated Paper Tape 6142 Natural Medium Duty, 3 in x 600 ft, 10 rolls per case Bulk

3M™ Water Activated Paper Tape 6142 provides a reliable and economical solution for sealing lightweight packages, particularly effective in a variety of industrial settings. This light-duty, water-activated tape is designed to offer a secure seal on a wide range of corrugated surfaces, ensuring the safety and integrity of the contents during transit.

• High-Tack Adhesive: The tape features a high-tack, water-activated adhesive that forms a strong bond with the fibers of corrugated cartons. This adhesive quality guarantees that boxes remain sealed from closure until they are intentionally opened, providing security and peace of mind for both shippers and recipients.
• Durable Construction: Reinforced with 60 lb. kraft paper, this tape maintains its structural integrity through shipping, handling, and storage. The robust paper backing ensures that the tape does not tear or break easily, making it suitable for a variety of environmental conditions and applications.
• Versatility: Available in both white and natural kraft colors and in various widths, 3M™ Water Activated Paper Tape 6142 can be adapted to match specific packaging aesthetics or requirements. It is ideal for recycled cartons and non-unitized loads, enhancing its utility across different packaging scenarios.
• Effective Sealing Techniques: For optimal security, it is recommended to apply the tape using two C clips on each carton top and bottom. When activated with water, the tape conforms quickly and seamlessly over carton edges and corners, creating secure C clip and I clip seals that are crucial for maintaining the integrity of the package.

Usage and Maintenance: To ensure the best application, activate the tape with a consistent layer of water. This can be done using a sponge or a water-activated tape dispenser, which helps maintain the moisture level necessary for optimal adhesion. Store the tape in a cool, dry place to preserve its quality and adhesive properties. 3M™ Water Activated Paper Tape 6142 is especially suitable for:

• Sealing lightweight packages in industries such as food and beverage, medical pharmaceuticals, paper, print, electronics, and more.
• Applications requiring a secure seal on recycled materials and in varied environmental conditions.
