- Red vinyl-coated cloth for clear colour coding
- 5 in width covers cables and conduit efficiently
- 36 yd roll length reduces change-over frequency
- Rubber adhesive holds from 40 to 170 °F
- 25 oz/in adhesion with 14 lb-in tensile strength
Red Vinyl Coated Cloth Tape for Light-Duty
3M 471 vinyl coated cloth tape comes in a red continuous roll measuring 1.5 inches wide by 36 yards long. It uses a rubber adhesive on one side and is rated for light-duty duct tape applications. The tape operates between 40 and 170 degrees Fahrenheit.
Practical Limits of the Rubber Adhesive
Adhesion strength is 25 oz/in and tensile strength is 14 lb-in, which suits temporary bundling, colour coding and non-critical sealing. The 5.2 mil thickness provides conformability but not heavy abrasion resistance. Performance drops outside the stated temperature range.
Replaces Cloth or Paper Tapes When Clean Removal
This roll upgrades from basic masking or cloth tapes where a moisture-resistant vinyl backing and consistent red colour are needed for phase identification. The jump is worth it for indoor electrical marking tasks that demand easy tear and residue-free removal within the temperature limits.

Questions about this item
Which width and length combination suits my job — the 1.5 in by 36 yd roll?
This roll measures 1.5 in wide and 36 yd long, giving a continuous vinyl-coated cloth tape for general-purpose bundling and marking
What does the 14 lb-in tensile strength mean when I pull the tape in a real installation?
The tape resists up to 14 lb-in of force before breaking, so it holds firm on cable bundles and temporary repairs without snapping under normal tension
How does the rubber adhesive perform across the 40 to 170 °F temperature range?
The rubber adhesive maintains its 25 oz/in adhesion from 40 °F up to 170 °F, staying tacky in cold environments and not softening excessively in heat
