3M 7000088517 Masking Tape 3in 60yd 7.6 Mil Tan

Product Description

The 3M 7000088517 is a general-purpose paper masking tape designed for painting, bundling, labeling, and surface protection tasks across trade and light industrial applications. It features a rubber adhesive system that delivers instant adhesion to a wide range of surfaces and releases cleanly within 24 hours to prevent residue buildup. At 7.6 mil thick with a tensile strength of 28 lb/in, the tape handles moderate stress without tearing mid-application. The easy-tear backing eliminates the need for a dispenser in fast-paced field or shop environments. Rated to a maximum operating temperature of 148.89 degrees F, it holds through typical spray and brush painting cycles.

This tape is suited for residential and commercial painting prep, HVAC duct masking, pipe and surface labeling, and general shop use where a reliable, removable mask is needed. The tan paper construction resists moisture, solvents, and paint flake transfer during application. It is appropriate for use by painters, general contractors, HVAC technicians, and maintenance professionals who need a clean-removing tape for short-duration masking tasks. Each roll is 3 inches wide and 60 yards long, providing 180 feet of usable tape per roll.
