Patco 5560 Protective Film Tape

Patco 5560 is a removable protective film tape built for temporary surface protection during assembly, shipping, or storage. It uses a polyethylene film backing with a moderate-tack, low-adhesion acrylic adhesive that removes cleanly without residue on plastics, glass, and metal. The roll measures 72 mm wide by 36 yards long on a 3-inch core.

Upgrading from basic masking tapes

This tape replaces standard masking or painter tapes when clean removal and surface safety are priorities. Its low adhesion is slightly less than blue painter tape, so it stays in place during transit but lifts easily without damaging finishes. The switch is worth it when residue-free removal on sensitive materials matters more than maximum holding power.

36-yard roll for medium jobs

The 36-yard length covers multiple masking tasks on typical workpieces such as window frames, appliance panels, or machined parts. It handles abrasion, moisture, and solvent exposure during handling or short-term outdoor storage. It runs out on high-volume production lines or applications needing crystal-clear optical clarity like the discontinued 3M 2112C.

Questions about this item

Will the 72 mm wide roll fit on a standard 3 inch core dispenser?

Yes, the roll is wound on a 3 inch diameter core, which matches the common dispenser size for film tapes of this width.

What surface preparation avoids the most common adhesion failure when applying this removable film tape?

Clean the surface of dust, oil and moisture before unrolling; the moderate tack acrylic adhesive bonds best to dry, contaminant-free plastics, glass or metal.

How long can the transparent orange film stay on a surface before the adhesive becomes difficult to remove cleanly?

The tape is designed for temporary protection during assembly or shipping and removes cleanly within that cycle; extended outdoor or high heat exposure beyond the intended cycle is not recommended.
