Product Construction Backing Adhesive Color Standard Roll Length 1-mil (0.03 mm) aluminum foil and a 4-mil (0.10 mm) non-woven web Transparent acrylic Silver (shiny) 60 yds. (55 m) Typical Physical Properties Note: The following technical information and data should be considered representative or typical only and should not be used for specification purposes. ASTM Test Method Adhesion to Steel: Features 22 oz./in. width (24 N/100 mm) D-3330 Tensile Strength: 19 lbs./in. width (333 N/100 mm) D-3759 Elongation at Break: 12% D-3759 Total Tape Thickness: 5.5 mils (0.14 mm) D-3652 Water Vapor Transmission Rate: 0.1g H2O/100 sq. in./24 hrs. (1.55 g/m2/24 hrs.) • Can be easily torn by hand. • Aluminum backing provides an excellent reflective surface for both heat and light. • Performs from -56°F (-54°C) to 300°F (149°C) continuously and has been known to perform when exposed to temperatures in excess of 400°F (204°C) for shorter periods of time. Generally, adhesive transfer occurs on removal when the higher temperature limits are reached. • Provides an excellent moisture barrier and ultimate adhesion level. • It conforms better and does not puncture and tear as easily as many thin foil tapes that come on a liner. • Because of its excellent handling and edge sealing qualities, it’s much easier and faster to apply than many of the standard foils, especially the linered foils. • It can be applied to many complex shapes and contoured surfaces easily. • Best results attained when applied to a clean, dry surface above 32°F (0°C). 3M™ Aluminum Foil/Reinforced Tape 1430 Application Ideas • • • • • • • Sealing or protecting of complex shapes or contoured surfaces.
