Professional masking tape with natural rubber adhesive, crepe paper backing, instant bonding, and superior paint hold-out for industrial applications
3M™ Masking Tape 2308 is a professional-grade general purpose masking tape engineered with natural rubber adhesive for instant bonding and superior holding power. Designed specifically for industrial applications, this tan-colored tape features a crepe paper backing that conforms perfectly to curved and irregular surfaces while maintaining excellent paint hold-out and resisting bleed-through. The tape measures 18mm in width and comes in 55-meter rolls with a 5.3 mil thickness, offering reliable performance across automotive, electronics, furniture, metalworking, and woodworking applications.
This masking tape delivers exceptional performance with its natural rubber adhesive that bonds instantly without requiring pressure or additional tools. The crepe paper backing provides superior conformability around corners and edges, while the easy-tear design allows for tool-free application and controlled unwind. With a maximum operating temperature of 121°C (250°F) and an 18-month shelf life, 3M Masking Tape 2308 maintains consistent quality and reliability throughout storage and use.
Each case contains 48 rolls, making it ideal for high-volume industrial operations and professional workshops. The tape's proven performance against paint solvents and water-based paints, combined with its ability to remove cleanly without damaging subsurfaces, makes it the preferred choice for precision masking in demanding industrial environments. Compliant with ASTM D6123 and ASTM D6123M-97 standards, this tape meets the rigorous requirements of professional paint masking and temporary holding applications.
