Industrial-grade PTFE film tape with silicone adhesive for friction reduction, non-stick surface, and extreme temperature performance from -65°F to 500°F. Ideal for machinery, web processing, and noise reduction applications.
3M™ PTFE Film Tape 5490 is an advanced industrial adhesive tape featuring an extruded polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) film backing combined with a pressure-sensitive silicone adhesive. This brown tape measures 1 inch wide by 36 yards long with a total thickness of 3.7 mil, and comes in a case of 7 rolls. The tape provides an exceptionally slick, non-stick surface that reduces friction between moving surfaces, making it ideal for lay-flat applications where materials need to move smoothly without adhesion issues. The extruded PTFE film backing resists curling when unwound and lies flatter than traditional skived PTFE film tapes, creating a more uniform non-skid surface for consistent performance.
This professional-grade tape is engineered to handle extreme temperature ranges from -65°F (-54°C) to 500°F (260°C), making it suitable for use on heated machinery and equipment. The silicone adhesive provides clean removal from a variety of surfaces without leaving residue, while the PTFE backing offers excellent chemical resistance for use as a temporary chemical barrier. The tape delivers high tensile strength of 22 lb/in (30.4 N/100mm) and superior abrasion resistance, ensuring long-lasting reliability in demanding industrial environments.
Recommended applications include roll-wrap for web processing, high-temperature wire bundling, squeak and noise reduction, lining of chutes and ducts, chemical shielding, and mold release for composite bonding. The tape's unique combination of low coefficient of friction, chemical resistance, and thermal stability makes it an innovative solution for reducing machinery noise, eliminating squeaks and rattles, and improving overall operational efficiency in manufacturing and industrial settings.
