3M 7000048796 Vinyl Marking Tape Blue 4 in X 36 Yd

Product Description

The 3M 7000048796 is a blue vinyl tape designed for lane marking, safety marking, color coding, and surface protection in commercial and industrial environments. The tape features a 5.2 mil vinyl backing combined with a rubber adhesive that bonds firmly to a variety of substrates. Its conformable construction and dead-stretch properties allow the tape to follow curved and irregular surfaces while maintaining crisp, straight line edges. Color holds up under heavy abrasion, and the tape releases cleanly without leaving adhesive residue behind. Licensed trades and facility maintenance crews use this tape for floor marking, wrapping, sealing, and splicing applications.

This tape is suited for both indoor and outdoor applications where a durable, color-coded visual marker is needed. Common uses include safety lane striping on shop floors, equipment identification, abrasion protection on hoses and cables, and masking on curved components during finishing work. The 4-inch width covers wide marking runs efficiently, and the 36-yard roll length reduces changeovers on longer marking jobs. Good solvent resistance makes it appropriate for areas where cleaning agents are regularly used.

Key Features

• 5.2 mil vinyl backing provides durable abrasion resistance
• Rubber adhesive bonds to curved and irregular surfaces
• Dead-stretch construction delivers straighter lines on floor marking applications
• Color-stable under heavy abrasion and repeated foot or equipment traffic
• Clean removal without adhesive residue transfer
• Good solvent resistance for use in maintained or cleaned work areas

Compatibility

Designed for use on smooth to semi-smooth surfaces including concrete, metal, and painted substrates typical of commercial and industrial lane and safety marking applications.

Installation Notes

Surface should be clean, dry, and free of dust, oil, or loose material before application. Apply firm hand pressure along the full length of the tape to ensure full adhesive contact, particularly on curved surfaces. For floor marking, allow any floor coatings or cleaners to fully cure or dry before tape application. Remove tape at a low angle to the surface to reduce the risk of backing tears and ensure clean adhesive removal.
