Types of Masking Tape

Masking tape can be categorised in several ways, resulting in multiple different types of tape suitable for a range of applications and environments. It is important to understand the key differences between each type in order to choose the best tape for the task at hand

One of the primary ways to categorise tape types is by the thin layer of adhesive material used in their manufacture. Three main types are used – acrylic, silicone, and rubber or rubber resin. Each of these types is explained in further detail in the sections below.

Rubber-Based Masking Tape

Rubber-based masking tape is widely used in a variety of general-purpose applications.

This type is reliable and features strong sticking properties, making it a firm favourite. However, rubber-based adhesive has a lower level of temperature resistance when compared to alternatives.

Acrylic-Based Masking Tape
Acrylic-based masking tape is suitable for use in extreme temperatures and more challenging environments.
Versatile and adaptable, acrylic-based adhesive can perform under fluctuating temperatures ranging from sub-freezing up to approximately 150° Celsius.

Silicone-Based Masking Tape

Silicone-based masking tape is also ideal for use in extreme temperatures. This type offers the best level of temperature resistance.

Provided that the backing material is not crepe paper or a similar flammable variant, silicone adhesive can withstand temperatures up to as high as 260°C.
