The Nichiban #241 Masking Tape offers the perfect balance of strength and removability—stickier and stronger than washi tape, yet far gentler and easier to remove than standard masking tape. Originally developed for industrial painting, it holds firmly, resists water, and adapts well for both studio and office use.
With an adhesive strength that’s 8.3% stickier than Nichiban’s ultra-gentle #210 Artist Tape, this tape provides broader utility but should be used with care on delicate surfaces. Unlike artist tape, Nichiban #241 is strong enough for applications like gift wrapping, packaging, and general projects where a longer-lasting hold is needed.
