3M 7000049603 Painters Tape 2 in X 72 Yd Blue

Product Description

The 3M 7000049603 is a high-temperature painters tape built for demanding industrial and commercial applications. It uses a blue polyester film backing with a silicone adhesive system that withstands temperatures from -60 degrees F up to 400 degrees F. At 3.5 mil thick and rated at 46 lb/in tensile strength, the tape resists tearing, abrasion, and chemical exposure during use. Each roll measures 2 inches wide by 72 yards long. HVAC technicians, industrial painters, and maintenance professionals install this tape where standard masking tape would fail under heat or solvent exposure.

This tape is suited for holding and splicing operations in environments where elevated temperatures or aggressive chemicals are present. Typical applications include masking components during powder coating, oven baking cycles, and high-temperature paint processes. The silicone adhesive is specifically engineered to remove cleanly from stainless steel, anodized aluminum, and glass after a 5-hour bake cycle at 350 degrees F. It performs in both residential and commercial/industrial settings wherever polyester film tape is specified.

Key Features

• Silicone adhesive rated for continuous use up to 400 degrees F
• Polyester film backing with 46 lb/in tensile strength for tear resistance
• Abrasion-resistant, chemical-resistant, and thermal-resistant construction
• Non-slivering backing reduces contamination risk during removal
• Removes cleanly from stainless steel, anodized aluminum, and glass after 350 degrees F bake cycles
• Suitable for holding and splicing applications

Compatibility

Designed for use on stainless steel, anodized aluminum, and glass surfaces in high-temperature masking, holding, and splicing applications where a clean-removal silicone adhesive tape is required.

Installation Notes

Surface should be clean, dry, and free of oils or loose particles before application. Apply firm pressure across the full width of the tape to ensure full adhesive contact. Allow the tape to cool before removal after high-temperature cycles to reduce adhesive residue risk. Follow facility safety procedures when working near ovens or heated process equipment.
