Premium PTFE film tape with silicone adhesive for non-stick applications, 1 inch x 36 yards, 6.8 mil thickness, 9 rolls per case, operating range -65°F to 500°F
3M™ PTFE Film Tape 5481 is a premium industrial-grade adhesive tape featuring a skived polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) film backing combined with a pressure-sensitive silicone adhesive. This exceptional tape delivers an extremely low coefficient of friction, making it ideal for applications requiring non-stick surfaces and easy material release. The gray-colored tape measures 1 inch in width with 36 yards of length per roll, offering 6.8 mil thickness without liner, and comes in convenient 9-roll cases for bulk industrial applications.
This skived PTFE film tape provides superior conformability compared to typical extruded PTFE film tapes, ensuring smooth unwinding from the roll and consistent performance across various substrates. The silicone adhesive enables clean removal from surfaces while maintaining excellent adhesion during application, making it perfect for roll-wrap applications, web processing, and machinery protection. With outstanding chemical resistance and a wide operating temperature range from -65°F to 500°F (-54°C to 260°C), this tape performs reliably in demanding industrial environments including aerospace, automotive, electronics, and general manufacturing applications.
The 5481 tape is specifically engineered as a thicker, more durable version of the 3M™ PTFE Skived Film Tape 5480, providing enhanced longevity and extended wear life. Its non-stick surface reduces friction between moving surfaces, eliminates squeaks and rattles, and reduces machine noise. The tape functions as an anti-stick or easy-release medium where pressure, temperature changes, and other factors may create adhesion challenges. Perfect for high-temperature wire bundling, mold release for composite bonding, and temporary chemical barriers, this industrial tape is certified for occupational use only and backed by 3M's reputation for quality and innovation.
