Each case contains 24 rolls, with each roll measuring 36mm wide by 55 meters long with a 4.7 mil thickness. The tape features easy hand-tear capability for tool-free application, eliminating the need for scissors or cutting tools on job sites. The crepe paper backing resists slivering and maintains structural integrity throughout the application process.
This general-purpose masking tape represents an ideal entry-level solution for professionals seeking reliable performance without premium pricing. Its moderate adhesion level provides adequate holding power for most standard applications while ensuring clean removal without substrate damage. The beige color blends seamlessly with most surfaces, and the 12-month shelf life ensures consistent performance throughout extended storage periods.
