Aerospace-Level Strength and Reliability

The 3M Paint Masking Tape 231/231A is a high-quality tape designed for aerospace applications. Its natural rubber adhesive provides instant sticking and reliable holding power, preventing lifting. This tape demonstrates superior adhesive transfer resistance, ensuring clean removal and reducing labor and clean-up time. The smooth mini-crepe backing allows excellent surface contact and is resistant to solvents and moisture, minimizing bleed-through. Additionally, the tape has a special backsize treatment that provides a smooth unwind for easy handling and reduced waste. It is easy to tear, making it convenient to use, while still being strong enough to resist slivering, ensuring "user-friendly" one-piece removal.

One of the key features of the 3M Paint Masking Tape 231/231A is its conformability, which allows for easy masking around corners and over irregular surfaces. This tape also offers easy handling, reducing application time. As a professional-grade masking tape, it provides paint flake resistance, reducing contamination and potential rework, resulting in a professional paint job.

The crepe paper backing of the tape tears easily, offering moderate conformability, and lifts off cleanly. The natural rubber adhesive bonds well to various surfaces such as paper, metal, wood, and painted surfaces, providing reliable holding power that resists lifting and curling. Under normal operating conditions, the tape can be removed in one piece and is resistant to slivering.

What is Masking Tape?

Masking tape is a type of tape specifically developed to protect surrounding surfaces from overspray during painting. It is designed to provide clean paint lines and can be easily and cleanly removed once the painting is finished. 3M masking tapes adhere well, resist solvents or water from the paint, and are strong enough to hang plastic sheeting. The crepe paper backing of the tape allows it to conform to curved and irregular surfaces. Additionally, the tape can be torn by hand, eliminating the need for tools during application.
