Combining a silicone-based adhesive and a rubber-based adhesive on a flexible, strong 1 mil clear polyester film (PET) carrier, 3M™ Double Coated Tape 9731 is an excellent choice for gasketing and other specialized applications involving silicone parts. The silicone adhesive provides a strong bond to silicone rubber and offers excellent holding power to various silicone surfaces. On the face side, the tape features 3M™ Adhesive 350, an acrylic adhesive known for its high adhesion to a wide variety of materials. With both adhesives, this tape performs effectively across a range of applications, including high temperature performance, good solvent resistance, very good holding power, and excellent UV resistance.
The thin polyester carrier provides dimensional stability and improved handling, making it easy to die cut and laminate. The 3 mil PET liner and the polycoated kraft paper release liner offer reliable performance for industrial applications, such as die-cutting and automated dispensers. These liners also help reduce edge curl and protect the tape from humidity extremes.
Recommended Applications- Gasketing
- Filters
- Silicone foams and rubber
Unique Solutions
For gasketing applications, 3M™ Double Coated Tape 9731 can be pre-applied to gasketing material, which is then die-cut to provide parts. This tape provides instant adhesion, keeping processes moving forward. It is ideal for attaching preformed gaskets, replacing gaskets, or bonding and sealing simultaneously. Examples of applications include air and liquid filters, fluid handling equipment, and heat exchangers. When you need gaskets that are easy and quick to apply, resist fluids, and provide high adhesion to foams and various silicone surfaces, turn to 3M™ Double Coated Tape 9731.
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.
