High Temperature Aluminum Foil/Glass Cloth Tape

3M™ High Temperature Aluminum Foil/Glass Cloth Tape 363 is a strong and flexible tape with high tensile strength, puncture and tear resistance. With a pressure sensitive silicone adhesive, it adheres well to silicone surfaces and over irregular or uneven substrates. This tape is light and heat reflective, plus it resists flame, moisture, weather and UV degradation. It is a chemical resistant, thermally conductive tape that performs consistently at temperatures ranging from -65°F/-54°C to 600°F/316°C. 3M™ High Temperature Aluminum Foil/Glass Cloth Tape 363 meets the requirements of F.A.R. 25.853 (a). For applications requiring a die-cut, 3M™ High Temperature Aluminum Foil/Glass Cloth Tape 363L is available with a liner.

The physical properties listed are typical values and are not to be considered as specifications. Our suggestions for use are based on tests we believe to be reliable. However, the purchaser must carry out their own tests to determine the suitability of the product for their internal use. Information is given in good faith, but without warranty.

It is essential, as with all pressure-sensitive tapes, that the surface to which the tape is applied be clean, dry and free of grease and oil.

Shelf life from date of manufacture is based on the product being stored at 70°F(21°C) / 50% relative humidity out of direct sunlight.

Specification compliance is dynamic and should only be used as a general guide. Always confirm that the tape you are interested in currently complies with all specification requirements. Please verify that the product number that you select is available in the proper size and color to meet your specification.
