Durable, Weather-Resistant Duct Tape for Indian Conditions
3M Performance Plus 8979 duct tape is a heavy-duty, UV and weather-resistant adhesive tape, constructed of polyethylene film laminated to cloth with a rubber adhesive. It measures 72 mm in width and 54.8 meters in length, with a thickness of 12.1 mil. Designed for versatile indoor and outdoor applications, it adheres immediately and maintains performance for up to one year under harsh conditions. Its construction resists curling and tears off cleanly, making it ideal for sealing, patching, bundling, and reinforcement tasks in construction, HVAC, marine, and maintenance settings.
