Overview

The Panduit METS3-X Stainless Steel Tape is a high-durability embossing solution designed for permanent identification in harsh indoor and outdoor environments. Engineered from Type 316 stainless steel, this silver-colored tape delivers superior corrosion resistance against moisture, chemicals, and extreme temperatures ranging from -112°F to 1000°F (-80°C to 538°C). The 0.5" (12.7 mm) width and 252" (6401 mm) length per roll provide ample material for marking pipes, conduit, valves, cables, and equipment in industrial, electrical, and infrastructure applications. Optimized for use with the Panduit MEHT187 Metal Embossing Hand Tool, the METS3-X tape enables the creation of raised characters for maximum visibility even in dirty or painted environments. Each roll supports one line of text, with embossed characters available in 3 mm and 5 mm heights for clear, legible identification. The tape’s durable construction ensures long-term performance in medium to high-volume applications exposed to abrasion, UV light, and environmental contaminants. Packaged in sets of 10 rolls, the METS3-X is ideal for facilities requiring on-site, on-demand labeling solutions. The embossed markings remain permanent and tamper-evident, meeting inspection and safety compliance standards. Compatible with Panduit’s Pan-Steel Stainless Steel Cable Ties, the tape’s designated plates feature an easy-feed design with raised slots to simplify installation and improve productivity. Trust Panduit’s METS3-X for reliable, low-cost identification in the most demanding industrial settings.
