Professional high-performance masking tape with synthetic rubber adhesive for industrial paint applications, withstands temperatures up to 325°F, clean removal without adhesive transfer, crepe paper backing for sharp corners.
The 3M™ High Performance Masking Tape 2693 is a professional-grade masking solution specifically engineered for demanding industrial 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, making it ideal for high-solid paints and urethane clear coats used on vehicles, aircraft, trains, and specialized equipment. The synthetic rubber adhesive formulation ensures reliable performance in extreme conditions, providing the highest holding power among all 3M masking products while maintaining excellent conformability to curved and irregular surfaces.
Designed for high-temperature paint processes, this masking tape can withstand bake temperatures up to 325°F (163°C) for 30 minutes without adhesive transfer or residue. The balanced roll construction enables controlled, precise dispensing for fast and easy application, while the robust crepe paper backing holds firmly around sharp corners and edges. The tape peels off cleanly from most surfaces without leaving adhesive residue, even after extended exposure to harsh conditions, making it perfect for two-tone color applications, multi-color paint jobs, and custom finishing work on trucks, buses, trailers, trains, fire trucks, ambulances, and aircraft.
Each case contains 72 rolls of 12mm x 55m tape with 7.9 mil thickness on plastic cores, providing substantial inventory for large-scale industrial operations. The tape's one-piece removal without slivering ensures professional results and worker efficiency, while its user-friendly design requires no special tools for application. This product is intended exclusively for industrial and occupational use by trained professionals in manufacturing, automotive, aerospace, rail, and marine industries.
