Masking
Key benefit
Perfect edge sharpness and 100% process reliability, even under the most demanding conditions.
The technological challenges we are tackling
High temperatures
Masking for drying, powder coating (Komaxit) and cataphoresis (KTL) processes, where the tapes must withstand temperatures of up to 180°C (or even higher) without the adhesive curing.
Sharp transitions
Thin, precision masking for multi-colour painting (fine line) in the automotive industry.
Easy removal
Guaranteed clean removal of masking elements without leaving any adhesive residue, thereby eliminating the need for additional cleaning of parts.
Typical applications
- Masking of threads, holes and mating surfaces prior to painting.
- Multi-colour painting of bodywork and plastic parts.
- Sandblasting and shot blasting (heavy-duty masking).
Surface protection
No additional costs for repairing scratched, soiled or damaged parts.
