The 3M™ Polyester Tape 8901 is made of a thin and strong polyester backing that offers excellent chemical, abrasion, and moisture resistance.
-
Does the blue color of the tape serve any purpose other than aesthetics?
Yes! The blue color in this tape helps to identify splices and overlaps during application.
-
How much tape comes on one roll/case?
This product includes one roll per case. Each roll measures at 18 inches wide by 72 yards in length.
-
Is the adhesive used on this particular tape reliable for long-term use?
Absolutely! The high-performance acrylic adhesive featured in this double-coated tape provides strong bonding capabilities, even when faced with difficult substrates or environmental challenges such as high humidity levels.
3M™ Polyester Tape 8901 is a thin, conformable polyester tape that is perfect for masking in high temperature applications. It adheres well to silicone coated surfaces and has a tear-resistant, translucent blue backing. This tape is coated with a silicone adhesive, making it ideal for masking in powder coating to provide sharp paint lines. It removes cleanly and in one-piece from most surfaces, avoiding slivering and breaking. Additionally, this tape excels in permanent splicing operations on silicone liners, papers, and films that are subject to high temperatures.
With good chemical resistance, this tape works effectively in chemical processes and demanding work conditions, such as anodizing. The pressure-sensitive silicone adhesive performs under a broad range of temperatures ranging from -60°F (-50°C) to 400°F (204°C).
Recommended Applications- Masking parts for high temperature powder coat painting
- Splicing of silicone liners, films, and papers
- Holding parts or vacuum bags during composite bonding operations
- Masking metal surfaces in acid or caustic chemical milling baths
- Protective tape reduces scratches during handling and shipping
