3M 7010374705 Polyester Masking Tape Blue 2in X 72yd

Product Description

The 3M 7010374705 is a blue polyester tape engineered for high-temperature masking and splicing applications in industrial finishing environments. Built on a tough, non-slivering polyester film backing at 2.6 mil thickness, it uses a clean-removing silicone adhesive that releases without leaving residue even after exposure to elevated process temperatures. The tape measures 2 inches wide on a 72-yard roll, providing ample coverage for production runs. It is primarily installed by powder coat finishers, industrial painters, and fabrication technicians who require a tape that survives oven cycles without adhesive transfer or backing failure.

This tape is designed for use in powder coat paint masking operations, where parts are baked at elevated temperatures and standard pressure-sensitive tapes would fail or leave adhesive residue. It is also suited for splicing silicone-treated release liners and films in converting operations. Typical install scenarios include masking threaded inserts, mating surfaces, and precision areas on metal parts before entry into a powder coat oven. Industrial facilities, metal fabrication shops, and converting lines are the primary environments where this product sees regular use.

Key Features

• 2.6 mil non-slivering polyester film backing resists tearing and splitting during removal
• Clean-removing high-temperature silicone adhesive leaves no residue after processing
• Blue color aids visual identification of masked areas during production
• Bubble-free application allows smooth, consistent contact on flat and contoured surfaces
• 2 inches x 72 yards per roll suits production-volume masking tasks

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style masking and splicing tape for use in powder coat paint masking processes and splicing of silicone-treated materials in industrial and converting applications.

Installation Notes

Applied by hand or with a tape dispenser to clean, dry, grease-free surfaces before powder coat processing. Ensure the substrate surface is free of oils and contaminants prior to application for proper adhesion. Remove the tape promptly after the part has cooled to the recommended handling temperature to ensure clean release. Do not stretch the tape during application, as this can affect adhesive contact and edge seal integrity.
