For Lower-Temperature Flying Splice Applications

3M™ Repulpable Flying Splice Tape R5348 is specially formulated for low- to medium-temperature ovens on a range of substrates. It is ideal for applications where high temperatures are not required. The tape features a 2.5 mil repulpable adhesive that is suitable for light- to medium-weight paper as well as substrates including polyethylene, BOPP, polyester, cast polypropylene, and aluminum foil. Additionally, this double coated tape features 2.5 mil split liners that release easily without delaminating the substrate.

Recommended Applications:
  • Lower-temperature printing (40°F to 100°F/4°C to 38°C)
  • Light- to medium-weight newspaper printing
  • Gravure and non-heatset printing
  • Offline splice preparation
  • Roll storage
  • Splicing tape on automatic splicing equipment

Preventing Broke Contamination from Non-Repulpable Splice Material

Both the adhesive and the liner of Tape R5348 are repulpable, which prevents broke contamination caused by non-repulpable fibers. This helps save labor costs and increases the value of waste paper. There is also no need to remove the splice from waste, which saves time during production. The adhesive and backing meet or exceed TAPPI UM-213, procedure A, and are FDA compliant to 21 CFR 176.170.
