PRODUCT FAQ
-
What makes 3M™ Splittable Flying Splice Tape 8387 unique?
The tape is designed to help you minimize downtime by allowing for faster and easier splicing of flying splice applications.
-
Can this tape be used in high-temperature environments?
Yes, it offers excellent performance even at high temperatures up to 180°F (82°C).
-
How many rolls come per case?
Each case contains 24 rolls of 50 mm x 50 m purple-colored, splittable flying splice tape.
-
Does the thickness of the tape matter when using it as a flying splice tape?
Absolutely! The seven mil (.18 mm) thickness provides strength and durability during splices.
When it comes to printing applications, we at 3M have been working busily for decades to provide the best products capable of increasing productivity, improving safety and inspiring innovation. The 3M™ Splittable Flying Splice Tape 8387 is no exception. We designed 3M™ Splittable Flying Splice Tape 8387 to consistently make splices at high speeds in printing and converting applications. The 8387 has a high performance adhesive developed for splicing a variety of films such as low surface energy (LSE) or high slip materials – LDPE, BOPP and PET.
Recommended Splicing Applications- Flexographic printing
- Film processing
- Film lamination and converting
This tape splits into two single-sided tapes – a process made visible by the independently tinted under laminate and over laminate. In order to best identify the splice components, the tape splits into a pink layer and a gray layer. It has a fiber-free construction, which eliminates the possibility of small pieces of tape or butterfly tabs breaking off or sticking to the rollers or CI drum. The tape lays flat for improved handling and clean splicing. Additionally, it utilizes film, which is far more reliable than paper-based splicing tapes.
The 3M™ Splittable Flying Splice Tape 8387 is engineered with a splitting layer for consistent splicing at high speeds. It is faster and more efficient because there is less time lost due to web breaks. Unlike other splicing tapes, it does not require glue and tabs to use. With these tapes, a missed splice could mean glue on the rollers and more down time.
