Technical Data
3M™ Performance Plus Duct Tape 8979 has a unique tape construction that allows
for both permanent and temporary applications whether indoors or outdoors. It is
removable with little or no adhesive residue from most opaque surfaces up to 6 months
after application. 3M duct tape 8979 is also UV resistant for one year. It will not
delaminate or deteriorate in sunlight. The tape is conformable, abrasion resistant, and
water resistant. The polyethylene film and cloth scrim construction provides straight,
easy tear with high tensile strength for the most demanding applications.

Temperature Use Range:
• Meets UL 723, HUD, and BOCA codes.
• Backing is curl resistant and conformable making it easy to handle and apply.
• The rubber adhesive bonds well to most surfaces and has excellent initial stick. Once
• Unwinds from the roll easily making it convenient to use and preventing user fatigue.
• The slate blue color blends with grays, but is distinct to insure the correct tape is
in place, it stays where you put it. One tape may be used for many applications with
little waste.
25 yd. rolls can also be used with the 3M™ Hand Masker™ Dispenser M3000 and
other dispensers to increase efficiency in hanging paper and plastic sheeting, or
dispensing the tape itself.
