Product Description
3M™ Double Coated Tapes with 3M™ Adhesive 300 feature a thin polyester film for
dimensional stability and improved handling with ease of die cutting and laminating.
The high tack adhesive provides relatively high initial adhesion and good shear holding
power to a variety of surfaces. The carrier also provides easier handling during slitting
and die cutting.

Features
• 3M™ Double Coated Tape 444PC is provided on a polycoated kraft liner that
provides moisture stability for large part converting.
• 3M™ Adhesive 300 is a medium-firm acrylic adhesive system featuring both high
initial adhesion and good high temperature holding power.
Application Techniques
Bond strength is dependent upon the amount of adhesive-to-surface contact developed.
Firm application pressure helps develop better adhesive contact and improves bond
strength.
To obtain optimum adhesion, the bonding surfaces must be clean, dry and well
unified. Some typical surface cleaning solvents are isopropyl alcohol or heptane.
*
Ideal tape application temperature range is 70°F to 100°F (21°C to 38°C). Initial tape
application to surfaces at temperatures below 50°F (10°C) is not recommended
because the adhesive becomes too firm to adhere readily. However, once properly
applied, low temperature holding is generally satisfactory.
*Note:
Carefully read and follow the manufacturer’s precautions and directions for
use when working with solvents.
Application Ideas
• Medical/non-medical diagnostic test strips
• Plastic film lamination/bonding
• Splicing
• Foam lamination
• Cell phone lens attachment
• Gasket attachment in hand held devices and laptops
