A Conformable Tape for Sharp Paint Lines
Scotch® High Temperature Fine Line Tape 4737 features a natural rubber, pressure sensitive adhesive that holds reliably to surface contours. Its smooth, vinyl backing provides conformability for working with complex shapes and curved surfaces. Due to its specially developed backing, this tape resists lifting around corners or in depressed areas. This tape removes cleanly after bake cycles with temperatures reaching 300°F/149°C for 30 minutes.

Recommended Applications

  • Industrial paint masking for specialty vehicle, automotive, rail, marine and aerospace paint jobs
  • Paint masking for automotive fascia
  • Paint masking for high temperature paint processes
  • Paint masking for custom, two-tone and multiple color applications

Holds Up Under Heat Strain and Removes Cleanly
Scotch® High Temperature Fine Line Tape 4737 features a heat resistant vinyl backing for easy one piece removal to help save production time. The combined vinyl backing and rubber adhesive functions with modern, high temperature bake cycles up to 300°F (149°C) for 30 minutes to hold strong and remove cleanly with minimal adhesive residue. It is designed for indoor use only and should not be subjected to outdoor exposure.

Designed for Die-Cutting and Stencils
With their 83 lb., die-cuttable poly-coated kraft (PCK) liner, Scotch® High Temperature Fine Line Tape 4737TL and 4737SL are capable of laying flat despite changes in humidity, which prevents curling and maintains form. This has proven successful in producing rotary die cuts, flatbed die cuts and stencils cut on a plotter table.
