Premium high-temperature masking tape for aerospace painting, withstands 300°F, clean removal, 0.75in x 60yd rolls, case of 64
3M™ Specialty High Temperature Masking Tape 5501A is a premium high-performance crepe paper masking tape specifically engineered for aerospace decorative painting applications. This professional-grade tape withstands surface temperatures up to 300°F (149°C) for 30 minutes and maintains clean removal following multiple moderate temperature bake cycles, making it ideal for complex aerospace painting projects. The tape features a strong rubber adhesive that bonds instantly to most surfaces including metal, rubber, glass, plastic, and EPDM-type rubber moldings while removing cleanly in one piece without residue or damage to underlying surfaces.
Designed with imperial widths to meet FAA marking requirements, this masking tape features a thick, high-strength crepe-paper backing that provides excellent tensile strength of 26 lb/in (45.5 N/cm) and is proven to be exceptional when tensioning for layout work. The controlled unwind mechanism reduces operator fatigue and improves accuracy during application, while the tape tears easily by hand yet resists slivering during de-masking operations. Its 7.3 mil thickness and superior conformability to irregular surfaces make it perfect for multi-color aerospace applications on aircraft during both OEM manufacturing and refurbishment operations.
This industrial-grade masking tape conforms to irregular surfaces, resists bleed through from most industrial paint systems, and improves visibility during the paint masking process to help achieve super sharp paint lines. The 0.75-inch width roll comes in 60-yard lengths with a 3-inch paper core, packaged in convenient cases of 64 rolls. With an elongation at break of 10% and superior adhesive performance, 3M Specialty High Temperature Masking Tape 5501A is the trusted choice for aerospace manufacturers, automotive specialists, and industrial painters who demand professional results.
