The film is optically transparent yet photographically opaque, a combination that makes it well suited to precision masking and registration tasks in the graphic arts and printing trades. The rubber adhesive provides firm, repositionable hold to film, glass, and smooth substrates without leaving heavy residue. Graphic arts technicians and print production professionals are the primary users of this tape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tape is designed for lithographic stripping applications in the graphic arts industry. Typical use cases include masking film positives and negatives during plate-making, aligning and registering film flats, and blocking out areas that must remain unexposed during contact printing. Its photographically opaque ruby red color ensures clean, defined edges when the assembly is exposed to UV or arc light sources common in traditional plateroom workflows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOptically transparent and photographically opaque UPVC film backing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2.4 mil (0.06 mm) total tape thickness for precise, low-profile masking\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRubber adhesive bonds to film and smooth substrates without heavy residue\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRuby red color provides clear visual contrast during film stripping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.25-inch width suits fine-detail registration and edge-blocking tasks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e72-yard roll length reduces mid-job changeovers on production work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for lithographic stripping and film-masking applications in the graphic arts industry.

Clean the substrate surface of dust and oils before applying to ensure proper adhesion and clean lift-off. Avoid stretching the tape during application, as distortion in the backing can compromise registration accuracy. Store unused rolls away from direct heat and UV light to preserve adhesive performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTape Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTape Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 72 yards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTotal Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.4 mil (0.06 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBacking Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: UPVC film\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdhesive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Rubber\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ruby Red\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: Roll\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.09 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 00021200034695\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3M\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7100082544\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"3M","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51342911471922,"sku":"7100082544","price":2609.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310513975.jpg?v=1782010342","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/3m-7100082544-lithographers-tape-616-ruby-red-0-25in-x-72yd","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
