3M 234 General-Purpose Masking Tape

3M™ general-purpose masking tape 234 features a strong backing and a less aggressive adhesive. It is one of our most popular general-purpose crepe backed masking tapes and performs exceptionally well in most indoor applications, having proven itself especially useful in window and door manufacturing. Our 3M™ general-purpose masking tape 234 is a multi-purpose, crepe-backed masking tape that performs well in both general painting and paint bake operations at temperatures up to 250 deg F/121 deg C for up to 30 min. It also features enough tensile strength to be of use in many holding, protecting and bundling applications. A controlled unwind ensures the tape dispenses evenly from the roll, making it less like to tear prematurely. It is advised that the tape not be subjected to outdoor exposure or prolonged periods of sunlight as it may become difficult to remove. This durable tape can be certified for ASTM D6123. The crepe paper backing tears easily, offers moderate conformability around corners and over irregular surfaces while the rubber adhesive sticks instantly and offers strong holding power that resists lifting and curling, while removing cleanly and easily from the surface. This tape bonds well to paper, metal, wood and painted surfaces with reliable holding power. Under normal operating conditions 3M™ general-purpose masking tape 234 features one-piece removal and is sliver-resistant.
