Premium PTFE film tape with silicone adhesive for industrial friction reduction, non-stick applications, and high-temperature performance from -65°F to 500°F
3M™ PTFE Film Tape 5490 is a premium industrial-grade adhesive tape featuring an extruded polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) film backing with pressure-sensitive silicone adhesive. This specialized tape delivers an exceptionally low coefficient of friction, making it ideal for applications requiring non-stick surfaces and smooth material movement. The tape measures 12 inches wide by 36 yards long with a total thickness of 3.7 mil and comes in brown color, packaged as 1 roll per case.
Designed for high-performance industrial applications, 3M PTFE Film Tape 5490 resists curling when unwound and lies flatter than traditional skived PTFE film tapes, creating a uniform non-skid surface. The silicone adhesive ensures clean removal from various substrates without leaving residue, while the extruded PTFE backing provides superior chemical resistance and durability. With an impressive temperature range from -65°F to 500°F (-54°C to 260°C), this tape performs reliably in both heated machinery and cold environments.
This versatile tape is engineered to reduce friction between moving surfaces, eliminate squeaks and rattles, and minimize machinery noise. It functions as both an anti-stick and easy-release medium in web processing, high-temperature wire bundling, composite mold release, and chemical barrier applications. The exceptional chemical resistance of PTFE combined with the reliable silicone adhesive makes this tape suitable for aerospace, automotive, electronics, metalworking, and general industrial applications.
