Industrial-grade green polyester masking tape with silicone adhesive, rated for extreme temperatures from -60°F to 425°F, ideal for aerospace, composite bonding, and high-temperature applications.
3M™ Polyester Tape 8403 is a premium industrial-grade masking tape designed for demanding applications requiring exceptional performance under extreme temperature conditions. This translucent green polyester tape features a silicone adhesive formulation that provides superior bonding to difficult surfaces including silicone-coated papers, films, and composite materials. The tape maintains flexibility and adhesion across a broad temperature range from -60°F (-50°C) to 425°F (218°C), making it ideal for aerospace, automotive, and manufacturing applications.
This heavy-duty masking tape is specifically engineered for high-temperature applications, composite bonding, and permanent splicing operations. The silicone adhesive ensures clean, one-piece removal from most surfaces without leaving residue or damaging underlying materials. The tape's chemical-resistant properties make it exceptionally durable in harsh environments such as anodization baths, metal bonding processes, and caustic chemical milling operations. As a thicker version of the 3M™ Polyester Tape 8402, the 8403 offers enhanced durability and extended service life.
The 14-inch wide by 72-yard roll format provides ample coverage for industrial splicing, masking, and protective applications. Meeting multiple aerospace specifications (ASTM D3330, ASTM D3652, ASTM D3759), this tape is engineered for professionals who require reliable performance in the most challenging work environments. The translucent green backing facilitates easy identification during splicing operations, while the tape's 140% elongation at break ensures it maintains integrity even under stress.
