Several industries paint their products and do so by baking it on at high temperatures. This can be achieved using paint that is cured in a stove or with a powder coating, where dry powder is cured under a high heat to allow it to flow and form a \u2018skin\u2019 around a frame. Yet industries often overlook solutions to stopping paint going where it shouldn\u2019t, and many don\u2019t understand that typical masking tapes won\u2019t fit their needs.<\/p>\n

This is where high temperature masking products have filled a much-needed gap, constantly innovating to meet the requirements of high temperature painting technology that the industry develops. Here at HiTek, we have a range of high temperature masking tape products that can suit your needs.<\/p>\n

High Temperature Masking Tapes for Powder Coating<\/strong><\/a> and Stove Enamelling:<\/strong><\/p>\n

PC-44 Polyester Tape \u2013 Max Temperature 220<\/strong> \u00b0C<\/strong><\/p>\n

This should be your go-to product for high temperature masking tape for powder coating. Unlike other paint masking products, PC-44 Polyester Tape can withstand 220\u00b0C for continuous periods of time. It expertly bonds to most surfaces, and even after this high temperature masking tape has withstood the heat on full blast for a while, it will remove cleanly without residue. It was developed specifically to be a high temperature masking tape for powder coating, but due to its outstanding performance in market tests it has been used for stove enamelling and many other functions.<\/p>\n

2595 Crepe Tape \u2013 Max Temperature 200\u00b0C<\/strong><\/p>\n

The 2595 Crepe Tape has more than stood its ground as a high temperature masking tape. It can withstand 200\u00b0C for up to two hours, and can be removed with ease when it has cooled down to between 40-60\u00b0C.<\/p>\n

Masking Tape Dots<\/strong><\/a> – Max Temperature 370\u00b0C<\/strong><\/p>\n

This paint masking product is available in two styles, silicone adhesive backed polyester (max 370\u00b0C) or rubber adhesive backed (max 200\u00b0C) and come in 1mm increments. They are perfect for high temperature painting, stove enamelling and powder coating.<\/p>\n

Other <\/strong>High Temperature Masking Tapes<\/strong>:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cHi-Tek\u201d Aluminium Foil Tape \u2013 Max Temperature 125\u00b0C<\/strong><\/p>\n

Withstanding up to 125\u00b0C, this aluminium foil tape is ideal for plating, shielding, cleaning, paint stripping and etching.<\/p>\n

\u201cHi-Tek\u201d Lead Foil Tape \u2013 Max Temperature 106\u00b0C<\/strong><\/p>\n

This tape has impressive thermal qualities with a max of 106\u00b0C as well as withstanding an incredible low temperature of -54\u00b0C. Unlike other paint masking products, it is electrically and thermally conductive, but at high temperatures it must be used for shorter durations than its counterparts.<\/p>\n

\u201cHi-Tek\u201d 1220 Tape – Max Temperature 104\u00b0C<\/strong><\/p>\n

Specifically developed as a high temperature masking tape for electroless nickel solutions, it leaves little to no residue when removed.<\/p>\n
