Various masking caps are available.

Businesses across Canada know that their top source of essential components is Daemar Inc., including solutions for finishing products. Masking solutions are crucial in this process, saving plentiful time and effort, since it is difficult and inconvenient to clean up paint or powder in places where it does not belong.

A recent blog post by Daemar discusses the important factors to consider when selecting masking products for specific industrial applications.

Clean and effortless tearing

The masking product selected, according to Daemar, should provide four specific characteristics for effective, high-quality finishing and protection from damage. First, they should be able to tolerate high-temperature work environments. The automotive sector, for example, functions in workplaces with high temperatures, so masking solutions should retain their shapes and forms in extreme heat. Masking products should also be easy to remove, so users do not damage items or leave residue on the surfaces – which will detract from the product appearance.

Third, masking solutions should be clean and easy to tear, especially masking tapes; this results in neater, quicker finishing. The fourth characteristic is cost-efficiency. Masking products should be inexpensive, so as not to add significant cost to finishing products.

Daemar supplies a full lineup of masking solutions for finishing, including caps, plugs, stoppers, tapes, tubing, and sheeting. Among the materials are silicone, EPDM, and high-temperature vinyl. Custom solutions with custom-moulded components are available too, as are custom dies and kits. The following masking categories are available from Daemar:

  • Masking caps. This standard product line comes in various materials, like silicone, EPDM, paper, and high-temperature vinyl.
  • Masking plugs. Available from Daemar in silicone, EPDM, high-temperature vinyl, and cork.
  • Masking tapes. Among the materials available for this lineup are polyimide, polyester, crepe, glass cloth, and silicone rubber.
  • Masking die cuts. These products work for a broad variety of applications, with such materials as aluminum foil, electroplater vinyl, glass cloth, polyimide, polyester, lead foil, or Teflon.

In addition to these four standard product lines, Daemar offers four series of masking hooks, designed to add precision and efficiency to metal finishing.
