require heat, moisture or other preparation prior to or subsequent to application. The
adhesive coating shall be smooth and uniform and be free of lumps and bare spots.
There shall be no separator between adjacent layers of the roll. 3M Electrical Tape 11
shall perform at a temperature of 221F (105C) to -40F (-40C) without loss of
physical or electrical properties.
To achieve maximum solvent resistance and holding performance, we suggest
thermosetting the tape at one of the following cycles:
1 hour @ 150C (300F)
2 hours @ 135C (275F)
3 hours @ 120C (250F)
