3M 7000048771 Pcb Tape 851 Green 4 Inches X 72 Yards 4.0 Mil

Product Description

The 3M 7000048771 is a polyester film masking tape engineered for printed circuit board plating processes. Built on a 1 mil polyester film carrier with a heavy-coat-weight silicone and rubber blended adhesive, the tape delivers reliable conformability over board edges and contoured surfaces. Total tape thickness is 3.6 mil. The translucent green color aids visual inspection during masking layup. This tape is sized at 4 inches wide by 72 yards per roll, giving technicians and PCB assembly professionals a generous run length per roll to cover high-volume production runs without mid-job splicing.

This tape is suited for masking operations in PCB electroplating and selective plating applications found in electronics manufacturing and repair environments. Its silicone and rubber blended adhesive system is formulated to hold cleanly through plating bath exposure while conforming to board geometry without lifting or flagging at edges. Electronics assembly technicians and PCB fabrication shops are the primary installers and users of this tape.

Key Features

• 1 mil polyester film carrier for dimensional stability during plating processes
• Heavy-coat-weight silicone and rubber blended adhesive for strong, conformable hold
• 3.6 mil total tape thickness for consistent masking coverage
• Translucent green color for easy visual verification of masked areas
• 4 inches wide by 72 yards per roll for extended production use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style masking tape for printed circuit board plating and selective electroplating masking applications in electronics manufacturing.

Installation Notes

Application is performed by electronics assembly technicians and PCB fabrication personnel. Ensure board surfaces are clean and free of oils or residue before applying tape to achieve full adhesive contact. Apply with consistent pressure along edges to prevent plating solution migration under the tape. Remove tape promptly after the plating process is complete to minimize adhesive residue transfer.
