Premium PTFE film tape with silicone adhesive for friction reduction, non-stick applications, and high-temperature performance from -65°F to 500°F. Extruded PTFE backing lies flatter than traditional skived film tapes.
3M™ PTFE Film Tape 5490 is a premium industrial-grade adhesive tape featuring an extruded polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) film backing combined with a pressure-sensitive silicone adhesive. This specialized tape provides an exceptionally slick, non-stick surface that excels in reducing friction between moving surfaces, making it ideal for high-performance applications across aerospace, automotive, electronics, and general industrial sectors. The tape's unique extruded PTFE film backing resists curling when unwound and lies significantly flatter than traditional skived PTFE film tapes, ensuring a more uniform and reliable non-skid surface for consistent performance.
With dimensions of 14 inches in width and 72 yards in length per roll, this tape delivers a total thickness of 3.7 mils without liner and features a 2 mil backing thickness. The silicone adhesive enables clean removal from various substrates without residue, while the PTFE material provides exceptional chemical resistance and outstanding performance across a wide temperature range from -65°F (-54°C) to 500°F (260°C). This temperature versatility makes it suitable for both ambient and heated machinery applications, including high-temperature wire bundling, equipment protection, and thermal management solutions.
The tape is specifically engineered to reduce friction, eliminate squeaks and rattles, and minimize machine noise in lay-flat applications. It serves as an effective anti-stick or easy-release medium where pressure, temperature changes, and other factors might create adhesion issues. With a tensile strength of 22 lb/in and excellent abrasion resistance, 3M™ PTFE Film Tape 5490 delivers reliable, long-lasting performance in demanding industrial environments. An 18-month shelf life ensures product reliability and consistency, making it a dependable choice for manufacturers and maintenance professionals seeking premium friction reduction solutions.
