Description
tesa 50600 masking tape is a green-translucent PET film tape made for high-temperature masking, surface protection, and light bonding or splicing work. Its silicone adhesive withstands powder-coating cycles up to 220 C for 30 minutes while supporting sharp paint edges and clean, one-piece removal. This 25 mm wide roll gives coaters and fabricators a practical size for narrow profiles, panel edges, hardware openings, and detailed mask lines.
Where the Tape Fits
Use the tape to protect areas that must remain free of powder, paint, epoxy, or process residue during finishing. The thin polyester backing follows straight edges and helps create a crisp boundary, while its tensile strength keeps the tape together during removal. It also works for temporary surface protection and for bonding or splicing non-polar films when the silicone adhesive is compatible with the process.
For powder coating, apply the tape to a clean, dry surface before the part enters the oven. Press the full width firmly, especially around corners and changes in elevation. Avoid stretching the film during placement because stored tension can pull the edge away as the part heats. After the coating cycle, remove the tape at a steady angle once the part reaches a handling temperature allowed by the finishing procedure.

Test the tape on the actual coating, substrate, and bake schedule before a production run, particularly on sensitive finishes or aged surfaces. Keep rolls clean and protected from dust so exposed adhesive edges do not carry contamination into the mask line. For adjacent masking and bonding options, browse industrial tapes.
