Professional-grade vinyl tape with superior conformability, instant adhesion, and clean removal for industrial floor marking, paint masking, and surface protection applications
3M™ Vinyl Tape 471 is a versatile, high-performance industrial adhesive tape engineered for long-lasting floor marking, sharp paint lines, surface protection, and reliable seals across a variety of industries. Featuring unique stretch properties with 130% elongation at break, this tape conforms seamlessly to rough, irregular, curved, and convex surfaces without lifting or retracting after application. The rubber adhesive provides immediate bonding with excellent holding strength of 26 oz/in (28 N/100mm) on most substrates, while the vibrant vinyl backing resists abrasion, moisture, and solvents for extended service life.
Designed for professional industrial and occupational use, 3M™ Vinyl Tape 471 combines conformability, instant adhesion, and clean removal to deliver exceptional performance in demanding applications. The tape removes cleanly in one piece from most surfaces, significantly reducing cleanup time and labor costs. With low leachable halogens and sulfur content, this tape is suitable for corrosion-sensitive applications including anodizing, electroplating, and electronics manufacturing.
The bright blue color provides excellent visibility for safety marking, lane identification, and color-coding applications. Operating effectively between 40°F (4°C) and 170°F (76°C), with an 18-month shelf life, 3M™ Vinyl Tape 471 offers superior performance compared to traditional painting methods, eliminating ventilation requirements and time-consuming preparation and cleanup processes. This professional-grade tape is an exceptional choice for temporary surface protection, general-purpose paint masking, hazard identification, decorating, bundling, and reinforcing applications.
