RK 553 crepe masking tape – 38 mm x 50 m at a glance

The RK 553 crepe masking tape belongs to the crepe tape category and is made with stable crepe backing material. The adhesive is based on rubber, providing reliable adhesion to smooth surfaces while allowing clean removal. At 38 mm wide and 50 m long, it is particularly suitable for larger masking and painting jobs. Its 0.15 mm thickness provides a good combination of conformability and tear strength. A 76 mm core makes unwinding and further processing easier. Its temperature resistance ranges from -30 °C to +80 °C, allowing use in changing environments.

The Krückemeyer brand stands for reliable adhesive tape solutions for industrial applications. This masking or crepe tape is suitable for temporary covering, masking surfaces and simple marking without leaving long-term adhesive residue.

Applications of RK 553 crepe masking tape

Suitable for masking work during painting and temporarily fixing components, films and markings. The combination of crepe backing and rubber adhesive makes it robust during construction or painting work while still allowing removal without residue.

Masking and painting

The stable crepe base makes the tape easy to position securely, particularly around edges and curves. The adhesive bonds reliably but releases in a controlled manner when unwound.

Temporary fixing and marking

Ideal for fixing films or temporary markings during processing. Adhesion remains stable without the tape releasing too early.
