  • Film processing
  • Film lamination and converting
Constructed for Consistency

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.
