Glass Cloth Tape

Series: GCT

500°F high-temperature glass cloth masking tape

MADE IN THEU.S.A.

GCT series tape is the gold standard for thick film powder coating of 10-15 mils, such as electrical buss bars. Excels in high temperature oven cures above 400F or for extended bake cycles where polyester tapes fail. Ideal for blast masking to protect critical surfaces from blast media. Also works in plasma spray masking due to superior abrasion resistance. Compare to 3M 361, 3M 69 or Saint-Gobain 2915 glass cloth tapes.

Meets Federal Aviation Regulation Part 25.855 (a-1), FAR 28.855, PMC 4273, CSS13 and Mil I-19166C.
