Masking tape is only suitable for surface protection during finish machining with soft, flexible tools (e.g. non-woven tools) To avoid its inadvertent removal,
ensure that the tape is only loaded in the direction of tool rotation during work with grinding tools - Application examples:
Clear-cut separation of areas requiring different abrasive finish patterns, e.g. mitre joints Protection of previously finished surfaces
- Advantages: High elasticity and tear strength Can be removed without leaving adhesive residues High edge stability
Leaves no undesirable oily films on workpieces
- This self-adhesive masking tape is used to preserve the clear separation between different surface finishes in adjacent areas.
Masking tape is applied to protect areas not to be machined.
