Features

• 3M™ Repositionable Tapes 665 and 666 have a medium tack adhesive on both sides of

the tape.

– Good adhesive anchorage to the film carrier provides one-piece tape removal from

many surfaces.

– Slight side-to-side adhesion differential, therefore specific side removal can be

accomplished if applied properly.

– The higher tack side of 3M tape 665 is on the face side (interior of roll).

– The higher tack side of 3M tape 666 is on the linered or back side (exterior of roll).

– The linerless feature of 3M tape 665 can help simplify manual or automatic dispensing.

No special liner removal equipment is required.

– The complete plastic construction of both tapes provides a hot wire cuttable feature for

plastic packaging.

• 3M™ Repositionable Tapes 9415PC and 9416 have a low tack adhesive on the back side

(exterior of roll) and a high tack (“permanent”) adhesive on the face side (interior of roll).

This means liner covers the low tack adhesive and the high tack adhesive is exposed when

the tape is unwound.

– The low tack adhesive side allows for removal from many films, foils, and papers and

will not cause delamination from most paper stock. In many cases this side can be reused

numerous times. The user should perform specific tests to determine the product’s

suitability for the particular application.

– Flexible materials will adhere better to the low tack adhesive than will rigid materials

(e.g. paper vs. cardboard). It may also be necessary to remove curl from certain

materials to avoid material separation from the tape over time.

– 3M™ Repositionable Tape 928 is identical to 3M tape 9416 for the hand-held ATG

applicator.

• 3M™ Repositionable Tapes 9425 and 9425HT have a medium tack adhesive on the back

side (exterior of roll) and a high tack (“permanent”) adhesive on the face side (interior of

roll) of the tape. This means liner covers the medium tack adhesive and the high tack

adhesive is exposed when the tape is unwound.

– The medium-tack adhesive allows removal from many foils and films without adhesive

residue. In many cases, the tape can be reused numerous times. The user should perform

specific tests to determine the product’s suitability for the particular application.

– The moisture stable liner improves processing of parts and ease of liner removal.

– The polyester film carrier of 3M tape 9425HT provides dimensional stability, improved

handling for die cutting and laminating, as well as providing higher temperature

resistance.

• 3M™ Repositionable Tape 9449S is a single linered low tack laminating adhesive.

– The liner is non-siliconized on the back side (adhesive side) which allows for the

construction of custom labels that are easier to handle, consistently maintaining

registration on-press when printing and converting.

– The low tack allows easy removal of labels from substrates with little or no adhesive

residue.
