Tesa 51108 High-temperature PET masking tape for automotive 25mm x 66m

High-temperature PET masking tape for automotive paint jobs

Specifications

• Thin PET film for straight and thin paint lines
• High tensile strength for easy demasking without the tape tearing
• Residue-free removal up to 150°C(302°F)/1h

Description

tesa® 51108 combines a polyester backing and a thermosetting adhesive to achieve the optimal performance for high-quality automotive paint jobs. The temperature resistance of up to 150°C(302°F)/1h and the high tensile strength provide an ideal usage for two-tone painting on car bodies at the automotive OEM or on bumpers at OES, especially if long straight lines are required. Due to the low thickness of 54 µm/2.1 mils, the tape creates extra sharp paint lines.

Standardized and customized applicators for tesa® 51108 are available to ensure efficient tape application.

Fields of application

tesa® 51108 is suitable for various types of masking applications.

Example applications are:

• Two-tone painting at temperatures up to 150°C(302°F)/1h
• Masking of straight lines on car bodies or bumpers
• To ensure the highest performance possible, our aim is to fully understand your application (including the substrates involved) in order to provide the right product recommendation.
