PROTEX 5
Protex 5 is a 4-5 mil latex saturated paper used for protection of bare aluminum, titanium, stainless steel and painted surfaces. The main uses for Protex 5 are on exterior aluminum skins, as well as electronic cabinetry, to prevent scratches during fabrication. After being applied to the surface it can be routed, drilled, countersunk and riveted. Paper is printed in red “SCRATCHES CAUSE REJECTIONS - HANDLE WITH CARE” A liner allows the product to be die-cut if desired.
