3M Performance Plus Duct Tape 8979N is a highly specialized industrial-grade duct tape ideally suited for demanding applications in the nuclear power plant, shipbuilding and steel fabrication industries. Tape resists wear, abrasion, moisture and UV exposure for up to 12 months and removes cleanly for up to six months from most opaque surfaces, indoors or outdoors. The thick rubber adhesive attaches well to masonry and other rough surfaces, while the curl-resistant backing conforms to irregular and curved surfaces, tears cleanly off the roll by hand, and is easy to write on. In addition to the nuclear power, shipbuilding and stainless steel industries, this high-performance tape is also used in construction, electrical, industrial, marine and military applications where low leachable halides and sulfur are required. Complies with MIL-STD-2041D(SH), Notice 2 for leachable halides and sulfur.
The 3M 48-millimeter-by-54-meter red performance plus nuclear duct tape is designed for both permanent and temporary applications and can be used both indoors and outdoors. It offers sunlight and UV resistance for up to one year without the backing deteriorating or delaminating. The red color is ideal for applications in the shipbuilding, nuclear power plant and stainless steel industries. The tape is certified for low leachable halogens and sulfur, is 13 milli-inches thick, measures 48-millimeters-by-54-meters (WxL) and weighs 1.4 pounds.
