3M 7010373572 Polyester Tape Blue 16in X 72yd Masking

Product Description

The 3M 7010373572 is a general-purpose blue polyester tape designed for high-temperature masking and splicing applications. At 2.6 mil total thickness, the tape combines a tough, non-slivering polyester backing with a clean-removing high-temperature silicone adhesive. The backing resists tearing during application and removal, which reduces rework time. The silicone adhesive releases cleanly after exposure to elevated temperatures, leaving no adhesive residue on masked surfaces. This tape is sold in a single roll measuring 16 inches wide by 72 yards long and is installed by finishing, painting, and industrial trade professionals.

This tape is commonly used for powder coat paint masking operations where clean adhesive removal after oven cure is required. It also performs well when splicing silicone-treated materials, release liners, and similar low-surface-energy substrates where standard acrylic adhesives fail to bond adequately. The 16-inch width suits wide masking runs on large fabricated parts, panels, and structural components going through powder coat finishing lines.

Key Features

• 2.6 mil thick construction provides durability without bulk
• Non-slivering polyester backing tears cleanly and resists splitting during removal
• High-temperature silicone adhesive removes cleanly without leaving residue
• Suited for masking during powder coat paint cure cycles
• Bonds to silicone-treated and other low-surface-energy materials for splicing applications
• Large-format 16 inches x 72 yard roll reduces changeover frequency on production lines

Compatibility

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

Installation Notes

Apply to clean, dry surfaces free of dust, oil, and contaminants for best adhesion. Ensure the surface temperature is within the tape's rated range before application. Remove the tape promptly after the masking process is complete to facilitate clean release. Handle the roll carefully to avoid edge damage, which can cause uneven breaks during application.
