3M Masking Tape, 36mm Width, 50m Length - 7100042894

This masking tape is a crepe-paper adhesive tape designed for temporary surface protection and precision masking in industrial environments. It performs effectively where controlled adhesion and clean removal are required, and its beige finish provides clear visibility against painted and untreated surfaces.

Features & Benefits

• Rubber-based adhesive delivers 4.4N/cm peel force for secure hold
• Rated for continuous exposure up to 160°C for heat tasks
• Backing of crepe paper offers conformability around contours
• Thickness of 0.15mm balances flexibility with tear resistance
• Tensile strength 106N/25mm resists breakage during application
• Supplied in a 50m length for extended usage on production lines

Applications

• Suitable for masking during automotive painting operations
• Ideal for precision masking in electronics assembly and soldering
• Used for temporary bundling of cables in electrical installations
• Can be used for surface protection in mechanical fabrication
• Suitable for automation processes requiring consistent tape feed

How does the tape behave when applied to curved or irregular surfaces?

The crepe-paper backing allows the tape to stretch slightly and conform to curves, enabling tight edge definition without excessive creasing.

Is the adhesive suitable for short-term application on delicate substrates?

The rubber adhesive provides medium adhesion, offering secure attachment with a reduced risk of substrate damage when removed promptly.

Can the tape withstand elevated-temperature processing steps?

It tolerates exposure up to 160°C, making it appropriate for many heat-related manufacturing stages without Rapid adhesive degradation.

How does the tape perform on automated dispensing equipment?

The 36mm width and consistent tensile behaviour support reliable feed and cutting in automated tape applicators.

What indicators help assess when tape is nearing end of usable length?

Visual monitoring of roll diameter and remaining turns is practical since the product is supplied in a continuous 50m roll.
