Industrial-grade vinyl masking tape for electroplating and anodizing with chemical resistance up to 121°C, conformable backing, and clean removal.
3M™ Electroplating Tape 470 is a premium industrial-grade masking tape specifically engineered for demanding electroplating and anodizing operations. This tan-colored, conformable vinyl tape features exceptional resistance to the harsh chemicals used in electroplating, anodizing, milling, etching, and peening processes. With its flexible vinyl backing, the tape conforms seamlessly to irregular and curved surfaces, making it ideal for complex masking applications. The tape maintains its integrity while operating at temperatures up to 121°C (250°F) and resists most common solvents encountered in industrial plating environments.
The 3M Electroplating Tape 470 combines superior durability with practical functionality. Its rubber adhesive provides excellent holding strength on metal surfaces and other industrial substrates, ensuring reliable masking throughout the plating process. The backing is abrasion, moisture, and wear-resistant, withstanding the rugged conditions typical of electroplating facilities. Additionally, the tape accepts marker ink and is compatible with thermal transfer printing, allowing for easy customization and labeling when needed. Upon completion of the plating process, the tape removes cleanly from most surfaces without leaving residue or damaging the underlying material.
This product comes in a case containing 24 rolls, each measuring 2 inches wide by 36 yards long with a total thickness of 7.1 mils. The tape features no liner for convenient application and is backed by 3M's commitment to quality and innovation in industrial adhesives and tapes. Ideal for aerospace, automotive, metalworking, and general industrial applications, this tape is for industrial and occupational use only and must be used in compliance with applicable health and safety regulations.
