GCT Series, 500°F

A 500F high temperature glass cloth tape that is Made in America. Made from tightly-woven 5 mils thick fiberglass, it has high tensile strength and superior heat and abrasion resistance. Ideal for high heat masking and heavy/thick powder coating where up to 10, 12 or even up to 15 mils of powder is applied.

With good abrasion resistance, it can be used for masking parts during media blasting. The fiberglass cloth and adhesive system make it flame retardant and solvent resistant. We can laminate it to a release liner and produce a wide variety of standard and custom die cuts too. Our glass cloth tape will not shrink and has clean removal after baking.

Rolls are 36 yards long and can be cut in custom widths upon request.
Viadon slits all tapes in-house! PLEASE Contact Us if you do not see the width of tape you need listed below. Single roll and case quantities are available.
