Premium industrial masking tape with high-temperature rubber adhesive, withstands up to 300°F/150°C, removes cleanly without residue, ideal for aerospace and automotive painting applications.
3M™ Specialty High Temperature Masking Tape 501+ is a premium industrial masking tape specifically engineered for high-performance painting applications where surface temperatures reach up to 300°F (150°C). This purple crepe paper tape features a proprietary high-temperature rubber adhesive that delivers exceptional holding power while removing cleanly in one piece without leaving adhesive residue. The tape is ideal for critical paint masking applications in aerospace, automotive, specialty vehicles, and industrial markets where strong holding and high-temperature performance are essential.
The tape's ultra-high strength holding power prevents paint blow-by on a variety of surfaces including metal, rubber, glass, plastic, and EPDM-type rubber moldings. Its conformable crepe paper backing easily adapts to irregular surfaces, corners, and contours, while resisting paint bleed-through from most industrial paint systems. The purple backing significantly improves visibility during the masking process and helps achieve sharp, clean paint lines. With low unwind characteristics, the tape reduces fatigue and improves productivity in wide-width applications.
This specialized masking tape is perfect for two-tone color applications on trucks, buses, trailers, trains, fire trucks, ambulances, and airplanes. The tape tears easily for tool-free application yet maintains sufficient strength to resist slivering, providing user-friendly one-piece removal. With an 18-month shelf life and 7 rolls per case, this professional-grade tape is the ideal solution for high-temperature industrial paint masking, fascia painting, pipe coating, and metal fabrication applications.
