Core Starting and Roll Closing Solutions Made Easy

Introducing the 3M Repulpable Heavy Duty Double Coated Tape R3257, a reliable and efficient solution for core starting and roll closing applications. This white, tissue backed, double sided tape is designed to provide high tack adhesion on a variety of surfaces. Its repulpable adhesive is conveniently provided on a repulpable easy-release paper liner, making it easy to use in manual, semi-automated, and automated dispensing applications.

One of the key advantages of this tape is its repulpable construction, which eliminates the need to remove splices from waste. This not only saves time and effort but also ensures that the paper mill broke is not contaminated with non-repulpable material. In fact, the tape meets or exceeds TAPPI UM-213, procedure A, helping to reduce labor costs and increase the value of waste paper.

Furthermore, the 3M Repulpable Heavy Duty Double Coated Tape R3257 is water dispersable, adding an extra layer of convenience and environmental friendliness. This feature eliminates the risk of contaminating the paper mill broke with non-repulpable material, ensuring a clean and efficient recycling process.

Rest assured, this tape complies with the requirements of indirect food additive regulations as described under 21 CFR 176.170 and 21 CFR 176.180. This means that all components of the adhesive and backing are safe for use in food-related applications.

Recommended Applications:
  • Core starting
  • Roll closing/tabbing
  • Temporary pull through splicing on coated and uncoated papers and celluosic materials
  • Zero speed splicing at sheeting and other paper converting operations
  • Manual, automatic and semi-automatic applications

The 3M Repulpable Heavy Duty Double Coated Tape R3257 is coated with an aggressive, high tack, pressure sensitive, repulpable adhesive. This adhesive offers exceptional adhesion to a wide variety of papers, making it suitable for various applications. It can withstand temperatures up to 400F (204C) for most paper grades, ensuring reliable performance even in demanding conditions.

To achieve optimum results, it is important to apply firm and even rub down pressure to the taped area. This helps create the best possible adhesion between the tape and the paper surface. For this purpose, we recommend using a plastic squeegee such as the 3M Hand Applicator PA1 or a similar tool to ensure uniform pressure distribution.
