Patco 5560 Protective Film Tape

Patco 5560 is a removable protective film tape supplied in a transparent orange finish. It combines a conformable polyethylene film backing with a moderate tack acrylic adhesive. The product is intended for temporary surface protection on plastics, glass and metal during assembly or shipping operations. Buyers needing a permanent bonding tape or a crystal-clear book repair tape should look elsewhere.

Easy installation with clean removal

The tape applies smoothly to curved or irregular surfaces thanks to its highly conformable backing. Moderate tack keeps it adhered through handling and transit without the aggressive grip of standard masking tapes. Low adhesion ensures clean, residue-free removal from most surfaces. Users expecting a static-cling film similar to a discontinued 3M 2112C product will find this adhesive-based tape behaves differently.

2-inch nominal width on 3-inch core

Each roll delivers 36 yards of film on a 3-inch diameter core. Industry-standard metric cutting means the actual width measures approximately 48mm, about 5% narrower than the nominal 2-inch size. The translucent orange colour helps operators identify and remove the tape quickly. Projects requiring wider continuous coverage or a completely invisible film layer will need an alternative solution.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the Patco 5560 tape is performing correctly after applying it to a surface?

The tape should adhere securely during handling or shipping, then peel away cleanly without leaving residue or damaging plastics, glass, or metal surfaces.

What does the roll include and what extra items are needed to use it?

The roll supplies 2-inch nominal (48 mm actual) by 36-yard transparent orange film tape on a 3-inch core; a compatible dispenser or cutter must be provided separately.

Should I choose the 5560 or the 5540 version for general surface protection?

Both numbers refer to the identical tape; 5560 is labelled for general surface protection while 5540 targets auto glass retention, so select 5560 for masking plastics, glass, or metal during assembly or shipping.
