Product Description 3M Performance Yellow Masking Tape 301+ was designed to deliver good paint lines and is ideal for paint masking applications in specialty vehicle, aerospace, automotive and industrial markets where strong holding performance is required. The high-strength yellow crepe paper backing conforms to irregular surfaces, resists bleed-through from most industrial paint systems and improves visibility during the paint masking process. Featuring a proprietary solvent-free adhesive, the tape sticks instantly to most surfaces, including metal, rubber, glass and plastic, while removing cleanly in one piece. Withstands surface temperatures up to 225F/107C for 30 minutes. Recommended for industrial paint masking, MRO applications, woodworking and concrete, and more.

The strong crepe paper backing resists bleed through of most industrial paint systems and is also useful for bundling and holding. Its unique color also makes it ideal for marking and identifying. Using 3M proprietary solvent-free adhesive, this tape sticks to most surfaces including metal, rubber, glass, and plastic and removes easily and cleanly in one piece. 301+ has a temperature use range up to 225°F (107°C) for 30 minutes so that sharp paint lines can be created in room temperature or paint-bake operations.Product Information Adhesion to Steel 30 oz./in. width (33 N/100 mm) Tensile Strength 22 lbs./in. width (385 N/100 mm) Elongation at Break 12% Tape Thickness 6.3 mils/ 0.16 mm; Temperature Use Range Up to 225° F/ 107° C for 30 min What is Masking Tape? Masking tape was developed specifically to help protect surrounding surfaces from overspray, provide clean paint lines, and remove easily and cleanly when finished. Masking tapes from 3M adhere well, resist solvents or water from the paint, and are strong enough to hang plastic sheeting, yet remove cleanly without damaging the subsurface. The backing, typically crepe paper, can conform to curved and irregular surfaces. The tape hand tears for tool-free application. A masking tape should specify what surfaces it will stick to and the interval over which it will remove cleanly. A very thin or poorly manufactured tape may demonstrate splintering or shredding, either coming off the roll or when being removed after use. Some masking tapes have the tensile strength for light commercial and industrial applications, including bundling, labeling, sealing, temporary repairs, lane marking, splicing, and surface protection. The classic crepe paper masking tape is a light tan color, but masking tapes from 3M come in a variety of colors and formulations to meet general and specific applications. A roll of masking tape is basic toolbox or supply room item in construction, warehousing, military, marine, shipping, and retail industries.About 3M Industrial Adhesives and Tapes For more than a century, 3M has applied innovation and technology to improving our customers’ lives and supporting their business goals.
