Description
Masking tape for temporary edge sealing of double glass modules
During the encapsulation process of frameless double glass modules, there is a need for single-sided tapes to prevent contamination of the equipment and form an aesthetic edge. Upon the process' completion, the masking tape needs to easily remove from the module.GT55 masking tape, similiar to the tesa® 50600
- Good immediate adhesion
- High temperature resistance
- Good removability after lamination process
PET Masking Tape 220°C with Silicone Adhesive
Product description
GT55 is a green-translucent, high-temperature masking tape featuring a polyester backing with a silicone adhesive. GT55 is used for various applications, especially for masking during powder-coating processes, surface protection applications or bonding and splicing of non-polar materials. GT55 masking tape is also available in a version with a liner.
Product Features
- GT55 is also available on a special 50 μm thick PET liner (50600 PV1)
- Residue-free removability for masking and surface protection applications
- The high-temperature tape features easy application and easy one-piece removal without leaving residues behind
- The tape enables sharp color edges and offers excellent paint anchorage.
- The masking tape's silicone adhesive system makes the tape extremely heat-resistant, withstanding extreme temperatures of up to 220°C for as long as 30 minutes at a time.
Application Fields
- GT55 is ideally suited for masking off areas that are to be protected during powder-coating processes
- The high-temperature tape can withstand temperatures of up to 220°C for 30 minutes
- GT55 is used for suface protection applications or bonding and splicing of non-polar materials
- The masking tape features residue-free removal
