Suitable for a range of basic carton sealing applications, 3M water-activated tapes create a secure bond when the moistened adhesive interacts with porous surfaces. Available in white and kraft and in a variety of widths, the tapes form a tamper-evident seal that shreds if an attempt is made to pull them off before delivery. Options include non-reinforced tape for light and medium duty, and fiberglass reinforced for heavy-duty packaging needs. 3M water-activated tape dispensers are available in electric and manual versions. Both offer an extra large water bottle for fewer refills, and can dispense tapes from one to 3 in. in width.
