314
***Discontinued*** Gap Enclosure Tape
Discontinued 314 is a 2.1 mil, BOPP (biaxially oriented polypropylene) film with pressure sensitive acrylic adhesive. Its application is most easily accomplished at room temperature. However, it may be applied to fiberboard boxes at temperatures down to 40°F. It is a box sealing tape with gapped flap regular slotted containers (RSC's). There is adhesive along the two edges with uncoated film in the middle. 314 is designed to meet the box sealing needs only for loads which are palletized and unitized throughout their entire distribution cycle.
