3M™ Riveters Tape 685 is a zone-coated polyester film tape with a tack-free center “window” for use in holding rivets in place both prior to and during riveting. During riveting, helps ensure easy visibility of rivets and no adhesive transfer to rivet heads. Tough polyester film that resists shattering or slivering to help save time and increase output. Uncoated center “window” so it does not adhere to rivets in order to eliminate potential of adhesive transfer to rivet heads. Rubber adhesive for good immediate adhesion that resists stretching induced by bucking bar that might lead to film entrapment under rivet head for ease of application and to help reduce rework.
Applications: holding rivets in place; automotive, metalworking, military and government, specialty vehicle, transportation
