3M 471 is a 5.2 mil vinyl tape with a rubber-based adhesive, offered in a 1/2-inch width by 36-yard length in clear. The vinyl backing is engineered to resist abrasion, scuffing, moisture, weathering, acids, and alkaline chemicals, making it a durable choice for environments where tape must hold up through extended service and repeated exposure to harsh conditions.

The rubber adhesive bonds on contact across most surfaces with no dripping, drying time, or cleanup, supporting fast, continuous application on production lines, in warehouses, and in manufacturing facilities. Typical uses include lane marking, color coding, surface protection, sealing, splicing, and patching on floors, equipment, and production substrates.

The 1/2-inch width is well-suited for precision marking and detail work where a narrower tape profile is needed. Each case contains 72 rolls, and the tape meets 3M's industrial product standards for consistency and performance across high-throughput applications.
