PMI #451FA Full Adhesive Tape 3" x 60yd
Premium full-adhesive screen printing tape engineered for complete screen sealing, blockout applications, and reliable ink containment during manual and automatic printing.
Characteristics
The PMI #451FA Full Adhesive Tape – 3" x 60 yd is a professional-grade, high-tack screen printing tape designed to provide complete adhesive coverage for sealing screens, blocking out unwanted openings, and preventing ink leaks during production. Unlike traditional split tapes, PMI #451FA features adhesive across the entire width of the tape, making it an excellent choice for applications that require maximum surface coverage and dependable adhesion.
Manufactured using the same durable backing material found in PMI's industry-leading split tape, the 451FA offers exceptional strength while removing cleanly after production. The tape resists tearing, shredding, and adhesive transfer, helping reduce cleanup time and protecting screen mesh and frame surfaces during reclaiming.
The 3-inch width is ideal for sealing the inside edges of aluminum and wood frames, blocking out pinholes or unwanted image areas, masking print-side screens, and reinforcing screen edges for long production runs. Its high-tack pressure-sensitive adhesive maintains a secure bond throughout repeated print cycles while remaining easy to remove when the job is complete.
With a generous 60-yard roll, PMI #451FA delivers long-lasting performance for busy print shops and is well suited for both manual and automatic screen printing operations requiring dependable screen masking and leak prevention.
