Taconic announces 6525-08 RD – A breakthrough in plasma spray masking technology

Taconic, a leader in high-performance coated fabrics, tapes and belts, is excited to announce the launch of its latest plasma spray masking innovation: 6525-08 RD, a next- generation plasma spray masking tape engineered to meet the most demanding performance requirements in the industry.

Designed to push the boundaries of what masking tapes can do, 6525-08 RD is the first of its kind in the thermal spray masking industry, offering an unmatched combination of extreme heat resistance, reduced surface contamination risk, and superior adhesion to metal—without leaving adhesive residue behind.
“This product is a major step forward for job shops who need precision, clean release, and durability in high-temperature environments,” said Tim Connelly, PSA Tapes Manager at Taconic. “6525-08 RD delivers where other tapes compromise.”

Key Features of 6525-08 RD:

• Extreme Heat Resistance: Performs reliably up to, and above, 329°C/625°F.
• Strong Metal Adhesion with Low Tack: A unique formulation allows for exceptionally strong adhesion to metal
  surfaces while minimizing surface contamination.
• No Adhesive Residue: Leaves clean surfaces, saving time and reducing rework.
• Reduces Coating Bridging: Sharp, conformable masking lines that reduce overspray and edge build-up.
• Abrasive Resistant: Built to withstand harsh spray environments.
• Cuts Cleanly: Enables precise application.
• Bold Red Color: Enhances visibility and clearly defines masking edges.
• Recyclable, Halogen-Free Liner: Eco-conscious design for waste reduction.
  The 6525-08 RD plasma spray masking tape represents a new standard in high-performance masking— providing
  the ideal balance of durability, workability, and environmental responsibility. 6525-08 RD is officially available…now.
