A thick (0.36mm) protective polyurethane film with an acrylic pressure sensitive adhesive. The tape is totally clear (after
removal of the white easy-release paper liner) and will virtually disappear on
application. Perfect for protecting wear areas on your bike such as
around the chainstay and under cables.
- Tear & abrasion resistant
- Completely transparent
- Ease of application
- Superior adhesion without the use of a primer
Product Applications
This tape is used in military, commercial, business and private aviation as lead edge protection against particle and rain erosion.
8671 can easily be diecut to exacting shapes and is paintable, printable and thermoformable.
The tape is extremely tough & totally transparent and is extremely effective at preventing damage caused by stone chips, abrasion, erosion, minor impacts etc.
Applications Include:
- Surface & Paint Protection on Cars/Bikes & other vehicles against stone chips, scuffs and scratches.
- Erosion protection of the leading edge in F1 cars, aircraft, & helicopters
Additional Product Information
Polyurethane Protective Tapes are a fast and exact way to provide exceptionally tough surface protection on metals, woods and plastics.
This tape is made from a highly durable thermoplastic elastomer and precoated with a high performance acrylic adhesive.

3M's Product Description
3M 8671 is made of an exceptionally tough abrasion and erosion resistant polyurethane formulated especially for its excellent resistance to ultraviolet light. There is little or no discolouration after prolonged periods of environmental exposure.
The high shear strength (HS) capability of this product was formulated to give better erosion resistance and better performance at high temperatures (such as those caused by aerodynamic heating), while providing better peel strength and shock resistance at very low temperatures.
8671 comes pre-coated with a long-ageing, solvent resistant, pressure sensitive acrylic adhesive and is protected with an easy release liner.
8671 can be applied by normal "wet" application techniques which allow ready sliding and repositionability, or by dry application techniques where complex curves need to be coated while allowing some repositionability.
The product is easy to apply and stretches to conform to difficult contours where this is desired. For especially high adhesion the surface to be coated can be primed with 3M Adhesion Promoter 86.
