3M Metalized Film Tape 8437 is comprised of a relatively thin polyester backing with a metalized coating on both side of the film providing a mirror-like finish with low emissivity and a versatile, long lasting acrylic adhesive. A silicone coated release liner helps with ease of handling and allows for large area applications and die-cutting custom shapes.

  • Metalized surface provides some of the advantages of a metal tape without the associated weight
  • Mirror-like finish gives the tape high visibility where it is needed and maintains its bright appearance for up to 3 months
  • Thin, high strength polyester film meets low caliper requirements which won't interfere with most machinery processes
  • Liner is convenient for die-cutting and applications to large surface areas, or applications where there is a narrow gap
  • Abrasion resistance protects surface from abrasion and rough handling
  • Pressure sensitive acrylic adhesive for clarity and long-term holding

Metalized Backing without the Weight

3M Metalized Film Tape 8437 is a high-quality tape that is made up of a 1 mil polyester backing. This backing is coated with a metalized coating on both sides of the film, giving it a mirror-like finish with low emissivity. The tape is designed to provide the advantages of a metal tape, such as reflectivity and conductivity, without the added weight. It is also coated with a versatile and long-lasting acrylic adhesive.

The mirror-like finish of the tape not only gives it a high visibility, but it also maintains its bright appearance for up to 3 months. The tape is mounted on a polyester backing that provides long-term aging, high tear resistance, good temperature resistance, and high strength. The liner of the tape allows for large applications and die-cutting of custom shapes, while also providing additional stiffness for application in narrow gaps.

Recommended Applications
  • Splice detection
  • Applications where reflectivity and low emissivity are desired
  • Applications requiring a conductive surface
  • Decorating and identification
Long Lasting Bond to a Variety of Materials

3M Metalized Film Tape 8437 is coated with a transparent acrylic adhesive. This pressure-sensitive adhesive grabs on contact and holds securely, ensuring a long-lasting bond to a variety of materials, including metals. The tape is designed to withstand a broad spectrum of temperatures, ranging from -60F/-50C to 300F/150C. This makes it suitable for use in various environments and applications.
