About the Scotch Basic Masking Tape 48 mm
This scotch basic masking tape 48mm item is a general-purpose masking tape supplied in a 48 mm wide by 50 m long roll. Masking tapes of this construction use a crêped-paper backing carrying a pressure-sensitive adhesive: the creped paper conforms around mild curves and edges, tears cleanly by hand without a knife or dispenser, and gives a defined boundary for painting and coating work. The 48 mm width is the widest of the common general-purpose sizes and covers more area per pass, which reduces the number of runs needed when masking wide edges, glazing frames or panel joints. BOLTON lists this item at its stated width and roll length; adhesion figures, temperature limits and paint-system compatibility vary between masking-tape grades and are not claimed here. Where a specific removal time, substrate or bake temperature has to be met, state the requirement with your enquiry so the correct grade can be confirmed before quotation.

Typical applications
General-purpose masking tape at 48 mm is used for paint-line masking, protecting adjacent surfaces during touch-up and coating, and for temporary labelling and bundling in workshops and stores. The wide roll suits masking straight runs and larger openings quickly, where a 24 mm tape would need two passes. Confirm the intended substrate and dwell time before use, since general-purpose grades are not intended for prolonged exposure or high-temperature cure cycles.
