Professional PTFE film tape with silicone adhesive for non-stick, low-friction applications in industrial machinery and web processing. Wide temperature range -65°F to 500°F with excellent chemical resistance.
3M™ PTFE Film Tape 5480 is a professional-grade industrial adhesive tape featuring a skived polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) conformable film backing combined with a pressure-sensitive silicone adhesive. This exceptional tape delivers an extremely low coefficient of friction, creating a smooth, non-stick surface ideal for web processing, roll-wrap applications, and machinery requiring easy material movement. The tape's exceptional slickness facilitates clean removal from various substrates while maintaining strong adhesion where needed.
Designed for demanding industrial applications, the 3M PTFE Film Tape 5480 operates effectively across an impressive temperature range from -65°F (-54°C) to 500°F (260°C), making it suitable for both heated machinery and cold-temperature environments. The skived film backing provides superior conformability compared to typical extruded PTFE film tapes, allowing for smooth application directly from the roll. With excellent chemical resistance properties, this tape functions as both an anti-stick medium and temporary chemical barrier, protecting sensitive surfaces while reducing friction-related noise and squeaks.
The tape comes in a convenient 2 roll per case configuration with each roll measuring 3 inches wide by 36 yards long, with a total thickness of 3.7 mil (0.093mm) and backing thickness of 2 mil (0.05mm). The gray color provides visibility during application and inspection. This industrial-grade tape is specifically formulated for occupational and industrial use only, meeting the stringent requirements of manufacturing, aerospace, automotive, and specialty processing industries where friction reduction and non-stick properties are critical operational factors.
