Featuring strong nylon backing and high temperature rubber adhesive to hold down materials during composite or metal bonding

High Temperature Performance with Clean Removal
Engineered for high temperatures, 3M™ High Temperature Nylon Tape 8555 is a thicker version of High Temperature Nylon Tape 855. This 6.0 mil thick film tape is designed to maintain its excellent performance even in high temperature bake cycles (up to 400°F/204°C). This high temperature performance is achieved without the use of a silicone adhesive, which eliminates the silicone residue that often interferes with cleaning operations and anchorage of certain adhesives and paints. Therefore, this tape is great for parts where subsequent painting or bonding is necessary. 3M constructed this high temperature film tape with a nylon backing at a full 5.0 mils for toughness and high elongation. This backing also removes quickly for easy application.

Recommended Applications

• Where thicker caliper nylon tape is required
• Advanced composite and metal bond masking
• Composite bagging operations
• Helps remove flashing after composite bonding
