3M 7000048553 Polyester Tape 8402 Green 2in X 72yd

Product Description

The 3M 7000048553 is a green polyester film tape designed for high-temperature masking applications across industrial and manufacturing environments. Built on a 1.8 mil polyester film backing, it uses a green pigmented silicone adhesive that bonds reliably to silicone-coated surfaces where standard acrylic or rubber-based adhesives typically fail. The green color aids quick visual identification during masking and splicing operations. Each roll measures 2 inches wide by 72 yards long. Licensed trades and industrial technicians working with silicone-treated substrates rely on this tape where heat resistance and clean adhesion are required.

This tape is well suited for masking during powder coating, anodizing, and other elevated-temperature finishing processes. Its silicone adhesive construction makes it a practical choice when working with silicone release liners or silicone-coated papers, particularly during splicing operations on converting and printing lines. It performs in environments where conventional masking tapes would degrade, lose adhesion, or leave residue under heat exposure.

Key Features

• 1.8 mil polyester film backing rated for high-temperature masking applications
• Green pigmented silicone adhesive bonds to silicone-coated surfaces
• Green color enables fast visual identification during masking and splicing
• 2 inches wide by 72 yards per roll for extended coverage
• Silicone adhesive construction resists degradation on heat-exposed surfaces

Compatibility

Designed as a high-temperature polyester film masking tape compatible with silicone-coated surfaces and silicone-treated paper, suitable for industrial masking and splicing applications where silicone adhesive performance is required.

Installation Notes

Surface should be clean and dry before application; contamination will reduce adhesion. Apply with consistent hand pressure or a roller to ensure full contact with the substrate. Remove tape promptly after the masking process is complete to minimize residue risk. Personnel handling tape in high-temperature process environments should follow applicable facility safety procedures.
