Protex Protective Tape P20V

Protex 20V is a 20 mil heavy-duty latex-saturated paper protective tape with a vinyl coating on one side to increase abrasion resistance. It is designed for protecting acrylic windows, canopies, windshields, and selected metal and painted surfaces where higher abrasion resistance is required.

Protex 20V is also used to protect wood interiors of high-quality business jets during manufacturing. Its heavy-duty construction makes it suitable for applications where increased surface protection is required during aircraft manufacturing, completion, maintenance, and servicing.

Protex 20V Heavy-Duty Protective Tape

Protex 20V provides heavy-duty temporary surface protection for aerospace manufacturing and maintenance applications. The 20 mil latex-saturated paper construction has a vinyl coating on one side to provide increased resistance to abrasion and contact during work around protected surfaces.

Typical applications include aircraft acrylic windows, canopies, windshields, certain metal and painted surfaces, and wood interiors in business jet manufacturing and completion environments.

A liner allows Protex 20V to be die-cut when required for specific applications. Review the applicable product specifications and manufacturer documentation before use.
