High-performance PTFE film tape with silicone adhesive for industrial applications. Features non-stick surface, wide temperature range (-65°F to 500°F), excellent chemical resistance, and superior conformability. Case of 18 rolls.
3M™ PTFE Film Tape 5480 is a premium industrial adhesive tape featuring a skived polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) film backing combined with a pressure-sensitive silicone adhesive. This tape delivers an exceptionally slick, non-stick surface that provides easy clean-up and superior performance in demanding industrial applications. The skived PTFE film backing offers enhanced conformability compared to typical extruded PTFE film tapes, making it ideal for roll-wrap applications, web processing, and high-temperature environments.
The tape's exceptional low coefficient of friction, combined with its silicone adhesive, creates a smooth surface that functions as an anti-stick or easy-release medium between surfaces. It effectively reduces friction between moving surfaces, eliminates squeaks and rattles, and reduces machine noise in industrial equipment. With a wide operating temperature range from -65°F (-54°C) to 500°F (260°C), this tape performs reliably in both extreme cold and high-heat applications. The gray-colored tape measures 1/2 inch (12.7 mm) wide, 36 yards (32.91 meters) long, and features a 3.7 mil (0.094 mm) thickness without liner.
The PTFE material provides excellent chemical resistance, allowing the tape to withstand challenging applications including exposure to reactive and corrosive substances. This industrial-grade tape comes in a case of 18 rolls, making it suitable for high-volume manufacturing operations, aerospace applications, appliance manufacturing, automotive assembly, electronics production, metalworking, military and government projects, and specialty vehicle manufacturing. The product is backed by 3M's reputation for innovation and reliability, ensuring consistent performance across diverse industrial applications.
