Flame Retardant Solution

Our 3M™Glass Cloth Tape 398FR is a white, glass cloth film tape with an acrylic adhesive that provides superior product performance and flame retardant properties. It features a 5.0 mil backing and a blue polyethylene film liner for ease of application. This tape is durable and has a high temperature resistance (up to 250°F/121°C). It also features good puncture resistance, high tensile strength and superior abrasion resistance. The white color ensures a clean and appealing finished product. Combined, these qualities make it is an ideal choice for use in many aerospace applications, including aircraft repair.

Recommended Applications



Sealing thermal and acoustic insulation panels where high adhesion and flame retardancy are needed

Aircraft window sealing, duct sealing and seat repair

Protection of wire harnesses, electrical cables or hoses from high temperature extremes and abrasion

Various marine applications

General industrial and MRO applications


Superior Adhesion with Acrylic

This tape features an acrylic adhesive that adheres immediately on contact to a variety of substrates. Once bonded this adhesive will provide high, secure adhesion for extended periods. This adhesive maintains adhesion in climate and temperature change variations.

Meeting Industry Demands

3M™ Glass Cloth Tape 398FR meets flame retardancy requirements of F.A.R. Part 25.853(a) and F.A.R. Part 25.855 (d); Boeing material specification BMS 5-146 Type I, Class I, Grade A; and Airbus Specification ABS 5649. It is EU compliant per directive 2003/11 EC of the European Parliament and the Council of February 6, 2003, amending Council Directive 76/769/EEC which restricts the use of penta-BDE and octa-BDE flame retardants.
