Professional electroplating and anodizing masking tape with vinyl backing, chemical resistant up to 250°F, conformable for curved surfaces, 72 rolls per case.
The 3M™ Electroplating Tape 470 is a professional-grade masking tape specifically engineered for demanding electroplating and anodizing operations. This tan-colored conformable tape features a flexible vinyl backing that provides excellent chemical resistance to most solvents and plating chemicals commonly used in industrial metal finishing processes. The tape is designed to withstand temperatures up to 121°C (250°F) while maintaining its adhesive integrity and protective properties, making it ideal for high-temperature electroplating and anodizing applications.
This tape offers exceptional abrasion, moisture, and wear resistance to withstand rugged industrial working conditions. The conformable backing is specifically designed for use on curved and irregular surfaces, allowing technicians to create precise masks around complex geometries. With a rubber adhesive that provides excellent holding strength on metal surfaces, the 470 tape delivers reliable performance throughout the plating process. The backing material accepts marker ink and is printable using thermal transfer processes, enabling easy customization and labeling when required.
The 3M Electroplating Tape 470 comes in a convenient 72 roll case, with each roll measuring 1/2 inch wide by 36 yards long and 7.1 mil thick. This tape is manufactured without a liner, providing immediate usability and cost efficiency. It removes cleanly from most surfaces after the electroplating or anodizing process is complete, leaving no residual adhesive. For industrial and occupational use only, this product meets the demanding requirements of aerospace, automotive, metalworking, and general industrial applications.
