A thick black vinyl plastic film with a pigmented rubber blend adhesive.

Designed for abrasion protection, it resists 3 years outdoor use, and is best overall general-purpose vinyl tape.

Tape 472 is used for protection during impact paint stripping.

It is not really resistant to direct impact effects, but can be used to protect against over spray.

Tape 472 is also used when there is a need for thick tape for dissimilar metal separation (galvanic corrosion) and as an anti-chafing surface where ducts pass through openings in bulkheads.
