A Heavy-Duty Tape for Heavy Traffic
3M Durable Floor Marking Tape 971 is specially designed to withstand heavy traffic areas, with colors that remain vivid even when exposed to heavy abrasion such as scuffing from pallets and heavy equipment. The tough backing has a low profile and resists curling which can cause edge lift and reduce the life of a floor marking tape. The rubber adhesive provides a strong bond to floors but also promotes one-piece clean removal, even after extended use. This tape has no liner and can easily be applied using 3M Lane Marking Applicator M-1 or by hand. This floor marking tape is ideal for 5S lean manufacturing initiatives and comes in a variety of colors and widths up to 24 inches (61 cm).
Recommended Applications
Floor marking in factory or warehouse high traffic areas, including areas with pallets and heavy equipment
