3M™ Double Coated Tape 9816L, 54 in X 250 yd, 3.5 mil, 9 rolls per pallet

3M™ Double Coated Tape 9816L features an aggressive, high tack rubber adhesive on a white polyester film carrier. This tape bonds immediately to most rubbers and open- and closed-cell foams, polyester and many plastics including PU, PE and polystyrene, and delivers good heat resistance. A 60# densified kraft liner adds dimensional stability for rotary and flatbed die-cutting.

A Balanced and Economical Tape for General-Purpose Industrial Applications
With a nominal thickness of 3.5 mils, our 3M™ Double Coated Tape 9816L is a general-purpose industrial tape that provides an immediate bond to most open cell urethane and closed cell urethane foams. This tape features an aggressive rubber-based adhesive which bonds to polyester, polyester urethane, polyethylene, polystyrene, vinyl foams and most rubbers. It is applied on each side of a white polyester film carrier which adds dimensional stability to foams and other substrates, and provides easier handling g. The 60-lb. densified kraft paper liner improves handling during slitting and die cutting.

3M™ Double Coated Tape 9816L has been tested for heat resistance from 150ºF/65ºC for short periods, and 120ºF/49ºC long term.

Recommended Applications


General purpose foam and rubber laminating
General purpose lamination for fabricated parts
Metals and high surface energy plastics


What is Double Coated Tape?
In general, double coated tape is composed of a paper, film, or tissue carrier that is coated on both sides with pressure sensitive adhesive. The adhesive is protected by a peel-away liner that is removed at the time of application. These tapes can be applied by hand or with a dispenser. Double coated tape dispensers are available in a variety of configurations ranging from manual to fully automatic. Applications for double coated tape are found in electronics, automotive, aerospace, general industrial, and fabrication markets.
