Best Practices for 3M Box Sealing Tape 369
-
Application
An extensive line of application equipment including hand held manual dispensers and semi-automatic and fully automatic equipment is available. Application of Tartan™ Box Sealing Tape 369 is most easily accomplished at room temperature. At colder temperatures, approaching 32°F (0°C), the adhesive becomes more firm. Once applied, Tartan tape 369 performs well throughout the normal temperature ranges typically encountered by packaged products in shipping and storage environments.
