25mm x 33m Gray 5481 Calendered PTFE Tape 3M

Our PTFE stripped film tape from 3MTM 5481 uses a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) peeled film backing. This tape offers an extremely low coefficient of friction which, in combination with a pressure sensitive silicone adhesive, creates a smooth, non-stick surface over a variety of substrates to aid in the movement of mesh materials in many types of roll wrapping applications.

Beveled film backing provides good adaptability when unwrapped from the roll compared to typical extruded PTFE film tapes. We developed this tape as a quick and easy solution to reduce friction between moving surfaces. It functions as an anti-adhesive or easy-release medium between surfaces where pressure, temperature changes and other factors can create some adhesion. The application of PTFE 5481 film strip 3Mtm can help improve surface movement, eliminate squeaking and rattling and reduce machine noise. PTFE is resistant to chemicals and can be used as a temporary chemical barrier. The tape has a wide temperature range, from -65 °F/-54 °C to 500 °F/260 °C, making it suitable for a wide variety of applications.

Supply: 5 to 10 working days

What is PTFE?

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is a synthetic material used in a variety of industries and applications to reduce friction coefficient. Due to its non-stick properties and high heat resistance, PTFE is used as an anti-stick coating for pans and other kitchen utensils. It is an excellent insulating material for electrical applications due to its lack of conductivity. PTFE is not reactive to many chemicals, due to the chemical resistance of fluoropolymer bonds; making it effective in containers and pipes for reactive and corrosive substances. PTFE reduces friction, wear and energy efficiency of machinery. Due to its low friction, PTFE is used in industrial applications where sliding action of parts is required, such as bearings, gears, sliding plates, etc. In these applications, it offers significantly better performance than nylon or acetal. 3M he took this versatile compound through an extrusion process to create a thin film, then combined the film with the unique pressure-sensitive adhesives from 3M to make these PTFE tapes. The innovative PTFE tapes from 3M high performance are reliable, durable and reduce friction.
