Filament Reinforced Packaging Tape
3M™ Tartan™ Filament Tape 8934
3M™ Tartan™ Filament Tape 8934 is a clear, general-purpose reinforced tape designed for light-duty strapping, bundling, box closing, palletizing, and reinforcing applications.
Its polypropylene backing is reinforced with glass yarn filaments for dependable tensile strength, while the pressure-sensitive synthetic rubber adhesive provides good shear strength to fibreboard, plastics, and most metal surfaces. The transparent backing helps printed graphics, labels, and illustrations remain visible through the tape.

Product Benefits
Glass Yarn Reinforcement
Reinforcing glass yarn filaments provide added strength for bundling, box reinforcement, strapping, and palletizing applications.
High Tensile Strength
The tape provides tensile strength of 100 pounds per inch of width for applications where dependable holding strength is important.
Clear Polypropylene Backing
The transparent backing helps preserve the visibility of box graphics, printed information, labels, and illustrations.
Good Shear Strength
The synthetic rubber adhesive bonds well to most fibreboard, plastics, and metal surfaces when properly prepared.
Resists Common Handling Damage
The tape resists nicks, abrasions, moisture, and scuffing to support reliable handling and packaging performance.
Efficient Material Use
Its reinforced construction provides strong holding performance with a relatively narrow 18 mm tape width.
