3M 7000088509 Masking Tape 3 in 60 Yd Orange

Product Description

The 3M 7000088509 is an orange paper masking tape from the 3M 2525 series, engineered for general industrial and trade applications where a strong, pressure-sensitive bond and clean handling are required. The tape measures 3 inches wide and 60 yards long with a 9.5 mil thickness, providing a durable backing that resists tearing mid-application. A rubber adhesive system delivers reliable tack on a range of surfaces. With a tensile strength of 49 lb/in and moisture-resistant construction, this tape holds up in demanding job-site conditions. HVAC, plumbing, and general maintenance trades commonly keep this tape on hand for bundling, color coding, and temporary holding tasks.

This tape is suited for both residential and light commercial work environments where fast, clean application is needed. Typical uses include bundling wire or tubing, color coding lines or components, holding parts in position during assembly, reinforcing seams, and splicing materials. The easy-tear backing speeds up repetitive tasks without requiring a knife or dispenser. The orange color aids visibility during color-coding workflows. Installers working in mechanical rooms, utility spaces, or on job carts will find this roll a practical utility item.

Installation Notes

Apply to clean, dry surfaces for best adhesion. This tape should not be subjected to outdoor exposure or left in place long-term on finished surfaces, as removal may become more difficult over time. No special tools are required for application or removal. Follow job-site safety and material handling guidelines when using tape near energized equipment or open piping systems.
