Trade fair: our group is exhibiting — Adhesives & Bonding Expo Europe, 10–12 November 2026, Messe Stuttgart, Hall 1, Booth 1001. Details and appointments →
The need: You have been asked to source a masking tape for a chemical line and the request just says "chemical resistant". Here is what to pin down before you send the RFQ.
"Chemical resistant" is not a specification — it is a category. Acid, alkali and salt fog are quoted as three different grades, so an RFQ that does not name the chemistry will come back with three different prices that you cannot compare.
Five lines are usually enough to get a comparable quote: the media and concentration, immersion or splash, dwell time, the substrate, and width plus annual volume. Anything less and you are comparing quotes for different products.
EJOY sources these from the group's own plant, so the grade can be matched to your line rather than picked from a stock list — and samples ship before you commit to a volume.
Masks and protects against acid attack — plating, etching & battery lines.

Stands up to acids, alkalis and salt spray — plating & chemical process protection.
ExploreAcid / alkali / salt fog plus concentration. This is the single line that makes quotes comparable.
It changes the grade and therefore the price.
Validate masking and clean removal on your own line first. EJOY ships samples free.
Roll price alone rarely decides this — rework from a failed mask costs more than the tape.
The acid or alkali and its concentration, whether it is immersion or splash, dwell time, the substrate, and width plus annual volume. Without the chemistry named, quotes are not comparable.
Yes. EJOY ships free samples so you can verify masking and clean removal on your own line before any order.
EJOY handles project and bulk volumes with custom widths. Send volume and target date with your request and we come back with MOQ, lead time and samples.
In most cases yes — they are quoted as different grades. A general chemical-resistant grade only covers mild, mixed exposure, so name your chemistry and we will tell you which applies.
You have to re-source or dual-source a harness tape and the quotes you get back differ by 40% with no obvious reason. Here is the information that makes them comparable.
