Scotch 7000048397 Masking Tape 2 in 60 Yd Tan

Product Description

The SCOTCH 7000048397 is a general-purpose paper masking tape rated for demanding trade and industrial applications. At 2 inches wide and 60 yards long, it delivers a substantial run of coverage per roll. The tape measures 5.8 mil thick and uses a rubber-based pressure-sensitive adhesive that bonds firmly to a variety of surfaces. A tensile strength of 27 lb/in means it holds up under tension during wrapping, bundling, and masking tasks without tearing prematurely. The tan paper backing tears cleanly by hand, eliminating the need for a dispenser on most jobs. Licensed trades and industrial technicians working in finishing, plating, and assembly environments will find this tape well-suited to controlled-environment applications.

This tape is designed for use across a wide range of professional tasks including paint masking, bundling, holding, sealing, splicing, tabbing, reinforcing, electroplating, wrapping, protecting, and identifying. It is compatible with surfaces such as copper, silver, treated metals, and furniture substrates. The tape is rated for bake cycles up to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C) for up to 60 minutes, making it appropriate for oven or curing applications common in finishing and metalworking shops. It is stain-resistant and pressure-sensitive, activating with hand pressure and no additional tools.

Installation Notes

Apply to clean, dry surfaces free of dust, oil, and loose material for best adhesion. Press firmly along the full length of the tape to ensure contact. Remove tape promptly after the masking or bake cycle is complete; do not subject to outdoor exposure, as the adhesive and backing are not rated for UV or weathering conditions. No special tools are required for application or hand-tear removal.
