Introducing 3M Water Activated Paper Tape 6142, a reliable solution for sealing corrugated boxes. This tape features a high-tack, water activated adhesive from 3M, ensuring that your boxes stay securely sealed until they are ready to be opened. The tape is made with reinforced 60 lb. kraft paper, providing extra strength and durability during shipping, handling, and storage. You can choose between white or natural kraft color options.

Recommended for sealing lightweight packages, 3M Water Activated Paper Tape 6142 offers an optimal method for securing your boxes. By forming two C clips on each carton top and bottom, this tape easily conforms over carton edges and corners, creating secure C clip and I clip seals. The water-activated adhesive bonds with the fiberboard material of corrugated cartons, resulting in a strong and durable seal that can withstand even the toughest handling and shipping scenarios. This tape is also suitable for use on recycled cartons and non-unitized loads. With its 60 lb. paper construction, you can rely on its performance in various environments and applications. It is a cost-effective packaging tape that meets the needs of industries such as food, beverage, medical pharmaceutical, paper, print, electronics, shipping, and distribution centers.

For increased efficiency and faster carton sealing processes, 3M offers semi-automatic application equipment. These tools are designed to make application easier and more convenient. It is recommended to apply the tape at room temperature for best results. Once applied, the tape performs well in the normal temperature ranges typically encountered during shipping and storage.

A Better Way to Seal Corrugated

3M Water Activated Dispensers and Water Activated Tapes provide an easy and economical solution to a wide variety of carton sealing challenges. The moistened adhesive interacts with porous surfaces to form a strong and lasting seal. This tape-bond creates a tamper-evident seal that shreds if anyone attempts to remove it before delivery.

Boxes sealed with this tape are securely sealed but can be easily opened without the need for cutting tools.
