3M™ PTFE FILM TAPE 5490, BROWN, 1 IN X 36 YD, 3.7 MIL, 9 ROLLS PER CASE

3M™ PTFE film tape 5490 uses an extruded polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) film backing. This tape offers an extremely low coefficient of friction which, in combination with a pressure sensitive silicon adhesive, creates a smooth, non-stick surface over a variety of substrates to assist in the movement of materials in many types of lay-flat applications. The extruded film backing on 3M™ PTFE film tape 5490 resists curling when unwound from the roll and lies flatter than skived PTFE film tapes, creating a more uniform non-skid surface. We developed this tape as a quick and easy solution to reduce friction between moving surfaces. It functions as an anti-stick or easy release medium where pressure, temperature changes and other factors may create a measure of adhesion. Applying 3M™ PTFE film tape 5490 can help improve surface movement, eliminate squeaks and rattles and reduce machine noise. PTFE is chemical-resistant and can be used as a temporary chemical barrier. The tape has a wide temperature use range, from -65 to 500 deg F, making it a suitable choice for a variety of applications.
