Characteristics
The PMI #260 Clear Quick Rip Tape – 2" x 60yd is a premium clear blockout tape designed to simplify screen preparation while reducing production downtime. Engineered specifically for screen printing applications, this tape features a unique hand-tearable construction that eliminates the need for scissors or knives, allowing operators to quickly apply tape during screen setup and press changeovers.
A distinctive blue non-adhesive edge creates an easy-lift tab, making the tape simple to remove from screens after production. This design helps reduce cleanup time while preventing frustration when removing tape from screen frames and mesh. The clear backing also improves visibility during application, allowing printers to accurately position the tape around artwork, stencil edges, and frame openings.
PMI #260 utilizes the same high-quality adhesive and backing material as PMI Split Tape, providing reliable adhesion throughout production while removing cleanly without leaving excessive adhesive residue. It creates an effective barrier that prevents ink leakage around screen frames and open mesh areas, helping produce cleaner prints and reducing press maintenance.
Each roll measures 2 inches wide by 60 yards long, providing ample material for repeated screen setups in textile, graphic, industrial, and specialty printing applications. Whether used on manual or automatic presses, PMI Quick Rip Tape is a dependable shop essential that improves workflow efficiency while helping maintain clean, professional printing results.
