3M™ 9143FR Corrosion Prevention Sealing Tape Rebate Program

The floors of aircraft entryways, galleys, lavatories and cargo compartments are vulnerable to frequent sources of moisture. Fluids from spills and leaks can migrate into the underlying floor support system, and condensation can form on sub-floor structures which can lead to corrosion. The resulting corrosion damage can weaken the entire sub-floor structure and result in costs up to $100,000 per aircraft, in addition to downtime. 3M™ Aircraft Interior Corrosion Prevention and Protection Tapes are designed to help reduce maintenance costs and increase service life of aircraft interior floor systems.

3M™ Corrosion Prevention Sealing Tape 9143FR is a 43 mil thick tape designed to provide a corrosion preventative sealing layer between aircraft floor beams and floorboards. When applied to aluminum floor beams and other floor support structures, the tape helps to protect the metallic support structure from corrosion caused by repeated exposure to various fluids, particularly around doors, galleys, lavatories, and in the cargo compartment. 9143FR is comprised of a polyester backing and a flame retardant acrylic adhesive that cuts easily, is repositionable, and removes cleanly after service. The product is available in a variety of widths in roll form.
