# [3M™ Hi-Tack Silicone Adhesive Tape for Wearable Devices](https://blog.marianinc.com/blog/3m-hi-tack-silicone-tapes)

Posted by [Katie Sullivan](https://blog.marianinc.com/blog/author/katie-sullivan)

![3M-MT-PC](https://blog.marianinc.com/hs-fs/hubfs/3M-MT-PC.jpg?width=300&name=3M-MT-PC.jpg)

*Editor's note: As of 2024, 3M Healthcare is now a standalone company, [Solventum](https://www.solventum.com/en-us/home/). [You can find more about the spin-off and how Marian is a Solventum Premier Converter here](https://marianinc.com/about-us/partnerships/solventum/).*

---

One of our top material suppliers, 3M, recently announced the release of their next generation of medical silicone adhesives, **3M Hi-Tack Silicone Adhesive Tapes**. 3M 2480 is the first product to launch in this new portfolio. It is a **single coated medical nonwoven tape with hi-tack silicone adhesive on a liner**. The benefits of this exciting new material include:

- Longer wear-times (up to 4 days)
- Supports heavier devices
- Offers more secure adhesion
- Repositionable

[Read the full press release from 3M here.](https://news.3m.com/)

As a [3M Medical Materials & Technologies Preferred Converter](https://marianinc.com/about-us/partnerships/3m/), Marian is excited to be able to offer this new material for wearable device designs. As discussed in our previous blog post, [Wearable Device Design – Selecting a Stick-to-Skin Adhesive](https://blog.marianinc.com/blog/wearable-device-design), selecting the most appropriate stick-to-skin material is a very important part of the design process.

Choosing between acrylic and silicone skin-contact adhesives forces the designer to weigh many factors. Traditionally, wear-time for acrylic adhesives is longer, however, they are more likely to cause trauma to the patient’s skin upon removal. Silicone adhesives are typically more gentle and easier to remove from the skin, however wear-time duration is shorter.

![3M_Medical_Materials_Technologies_2480_Polyester_Nonwoven_Tape_Silicone_Adhesive](https://blog.marianinc.com/hs-fs/hubfs/3M_Medical_Materials_Technologies_2480_Polyester_Nonwoven_Tape_Silicone_Adhesive.jpg?width=150&name=3M_Medical_Materials_Technologies_2480_Polyester_Nonwoven_Tape_Silicone_Adhesive.jpg)With the addition of **3M 2480** to 3M’s broader silicone adhesive portfolio, 3M is bridging the gap in terms of wear-time. In the words from the press release, “The 2480 3M Hi-Tack Silicone Adhesive is the first of its kind to offer the repositionable, gentle properties of silicone and achieve up to a four-day wear time, supporting heavier, more complex devices."
