3M 7100011732 Polyester Tape 8403 Green 24x72yd

Product Description

The 3M 7100011732 is a green polyester film tape designed for high-temperature masking and splicing applications. Built on a 2.3 mil polyester film backing with a green pigmented silicone adhesive, this tape is engineered to hold up where standard masking tapes fail. The silicone adhesive system allows the tape to bond reliably to silicone-coated surfaces, a surface type that is notoriously difficult for conventional acrylic or rubber-based adhesives. Licensed HVAC technicians, industrial maintenance crews, and converting-line operators rely on this tape for controlled masking during powder coating, annealing, and similar elevated-temperature processes.

This tape is used in industrial and manufacturing environments where high-temperature exposure is part of the normal workflow. Common applications include masking during heat treatment cycles, splicing of silicone-treated release liners and papers, and any converting operation where a clean, identifiable tape is needed on silicone-coated substrates. The distinctive green color aids quick visual identification on the line, reducing misapplication during fast-paced production runs. It is sold as a single roll measuring 24 inches wide by 72 yards long.

Key Features

• 2.3 mil polyester film backing provides dimensional stability under heat and tension
• Green pigmented silicone adhesive bonds to silicone-coated and difficult-to-adhere surfaces
• Formulated for high-temperature masking applications where standard tapes degrade
• Green color enables fast visual identification during splicing and masking operations
• 24 inches wide by 72 yards long — large-format roll suited for wide-web converting lines

Compatibility

Designed for use on silicone-coated papers, release liners, and similar substrates encountered in industrial converting and high-temperature masking operations.

Installation Notes

Application should be performed by personnel familiar with industrial tape converting or masking procedures. Ensure the substrate surface is clean and free of dust, oils, or loose coatings before applying the tape. When used in heat-process masking, verify that the process temperature does not exceed the rated performance range of the tape as specified in the product technical data sheet. Remove tape promptly after the process cycle completes to minimize adhesive transfer risk.
