3M™ Antistatic Utility Tape
40 Printed and Unprinted
Data Sheet
July 2013
3M Antistatic Utility Tapes 40 Printed and Unprinted represent a breakthrough in
pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) tape technology. This new tape, which generates
less than 50 Volts on unwind and removal from stainless steel, helps prevent
electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage to sensitive electronic components in
manufacturing environments. Triboelectric charge may vary with your application and
environment.

Description
Product Features
Excellent Performance
3M 40 antistatic utility tape can be used at static-safeguard workstations as part
of your total static control program. It generates very low levels of static charge even
in dry conditions of 10% relative humidity (RH). The tape is supplied on a paper core;
antistatic plastic cores are available to minimize particulate contamination in clean
work areas.
Proprietary Technology
3M 40 antistatic utility tape is a transparent polyester film tape with acrylic
adhesive. Made with a proprietary technology, the tape generates extremely low
levels of triboelectric charge when it is unwound from the roll and also when
removed from most surfaces on which it is placed. This makes the tape an excellent
choice for use near electronic components and assemblies. The tape is supplied on
36-yard and 72-yard rolls on 1” and 3” cores.
40 Tape Printed for Protection
The tape is printed on the adhesive side with the 3M logo and the ESD Protective
Symbol. This reminds workers that 40 tape is one of the only utility tapes you should
allow in static-safeguarded areas.
