Premium industrial masking tape with synthetic rubber adhesive, crepe paper backing, and superior heat resistance up to 325°F. Ideal for automotive, aerospace, and specialty vehicle paint masking applications. Removes cleanly without adhesive transfer.
3M™ High Performance Masking Tape 2693 is a premium industrial-grade masking solution engineered specifically for high-performance paint applications in the transportation industry. This heavy-duty tape features a crepe paper backing that delivers exceptional holding power while maintaining clean removal properties. The tape is formulated with synthetic rubber adhesive that withstands demanding conditions and extreme temperatures up to 325°F (163°C) for 30 minutes, making it ideal for bake-on paint processes used in automotive, aerospace, and specialty vehicle manufacturing.
This versatile masking tape performs exceptionally well with high-solid paints and urethane clear coats, providing superior conformability to curved and irregular surfaces. The balanced roll construction ensures controlled, precise dispensing that eliminates waste and improves application efficiency. With a width of 72mm (2.83 inches) and length of 55 meters (60.14 yards), each roll delivers reliable coverage for large-scale industrial paint masking operations. The 7.9 mil thickness provides the optimal balance between durability and flexibility, allowing the tape to hold masking film and paper securely in place during high-temperature paint processes.
The tape removes cleanly from most surfaces without adhesive transfer or residue, even after extended exposure to high temperatures. Its superior tensile strength of 50.8 N/100mm (464 oz/in) ensures the tape holds firm around sharp corners and edges without slivering or breaking during application or removal. Each case contains 12 rolls, providing substantial quantity for industrial operations. This product is specifically formulated for industrial and occupational use and is not intended for consumer applications.
