3M™ Water Activated Tape Systems: Simplicity. Security. Value.
For Box Sealing and Other Packaging Applications
Our 3M™ Water Activated Paper Tape 6141 is recommended for sealing lightweight packages. The optimal method for securing a box is to form two C clips on each carton top and bottom. When water-activated, this tape easily and quickly conforms over carton edges and corners to form secure C clip seals.

Our water-activated, or "gummed," tape is very effective for sealing corrugated cartons, as the adhesive will bond with the fiberboard material to create a strong durable seal and endure the toughest handling and shipping scenarios.
