3M 7100097116 Vent Tape 394 White 0.75 in X 36 Yd

Product Description

The 3M 7100097116 is a 4.0 mil vent tape designed for industrial sealing, holding, reinforcing, masking, protection, splicing, and identification tasks. It features a non-woven, synthetic backing coated with an acrylic adhesive. The non-woven porous structure provides high air and gas permeability, which is the defining characteristic of this tape — allowing controlled venting while maintaining a solids barrier that minimizes voids and reduces cleanup time. Each roll measures 0.75 inches wide by 36 yards long. Licensed tradespeople and industrial maintenance technicians working with duct assemblies, enclosures, or fabrication processes will find this tape suited for applications where breathability and reliable adhesion are both required.

Vent Tape 394 White is applied across a range of industrial settings where standard non-porous tapes are not appropriate. Its high air and gas permeability makes it a fit for sealing around vented components, reinforcing joints that require breathability, masking during surface treatment, and splicing operations in fabrication environments. The white backing also supports identification and labeling tasks on assemblies and panels.

Key Features

• 4.0 mil (0.10 mm) non-woven synthetic backing for durability and flexibility
• Acrylic adhesive for consistent bond across a range of surfaces
• High air and gas permeability through porous non-woven structure
• Solids barrier minimizes voids and reduces cleanup after removal
• Good burst strength for holding and reinforcing applications
• Suitable for sealing, masking, splicing, protection, and identification tasks

Compatibility

Designed for general industrial use across sealing, reinforcing, masking, splicing, and identification applications where a breathable, porous tape backing is required.

Installation Notes

Surface should be clean, dry, and free of oils or loose debris before application to ensure full adhesive contact. Apply firm, even pressure across the tape length to seat the adhesive uniformly. When used in masking applications, remove the tape promptly after the process step is complete to prevent adhesive transfer. Follow applicable facility safety procedures when working near pressurized enclosures or gas-handling components.
