3M 7000049597 Polyester Tape Blue 1 Inch X 72 Yard

Product Description

The 3M 7000049597 is a blue polyester tape with a high-temperature silicone adhesive and a tough, non-slivering polyester film backing. The adhesive is rated for clean removal, leaving no residue behind after use in elevated temperature applications. The tape measures 1 inch wide on a 72-yard roll and carries a total thickness of 2.6 mil. It is designed for use by painters, powder coat specialists, and industrial maintenance technicians who need a reliable masking or splicing tape that holds up under heat without transferring adhesive to the substrate.

This tape is used primarily in powder coat paint masking operations, where a clean, heat-stable edge is required during the curing cycle. It is also suitable for splicing and handling silicone-treated materials, including silicone release liners, where conventional acrylic or rubber-based adhesives will not bond. The 1-inch width makes it practical for masking hardware, brackets, threaded fasteners, and other small components staged on racks before entering the oven.

Key Features

• High-temperature silicone adhesive rated for clean removal without adhesive residue
• Non-slivering polyester film backing resists tearing and edge fraying during handling
• 2.6 mil total tape thickness provides durability without bulk
• 1 inch x 72 yards per roll — standard width for component masking and splicing
• Bonds to silicone-treated surfaces where most tapes will not adhere
• Blue color provides easy visual identification during masking and removal

Compatibility

Designed for powder coat paint masking and splicing of silicone-treated materials in industrial and finishing applications.

Installation Notes

Apply to clean, dry surfaces free of oils, dust, and loose particles before masking or splicing. Press the tape firmly along the entire edge to prevent bleed-through during the powder coat curing cycle. After processing, remove the tape while the substrate is still warm for cleanest adhesive release. Store unused rolls in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight to maintain adhesive performance.
