Industrial-grade PTFE film tape with silicone adhesive for friction reduction, heat resistance up to 500°F, and clean removal from various surfaces. Ideal for web processing, machinery noise reduction, and chemical applications.
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 delivers an exceptionally slick, non-stick surface that reduces friction between moving surfaces, making it ideal for web processing, belt applications, and machinery where sticky materials and inks may accumulate. The extruded PTFE film backing resists curling when unwound from the roll and lies flatter than traditional skived PTFE film tapes, creating a more uniform non-skid surface for enhanced performance.
Designed for demanding industrial applications, this tape offers a wide temperature operating range from -65°F (-54°C) to 500°F (260°C), making it suitable for both heated machinery and cold environments. The silicone adhesive provides clean removal from a variety of substrates without leaving residue, while the PTFE backing delivers excellent chemical resistance and acts as a temporary chemical barrier. With high strength and abrasion resistance, this tape effectively reduces friction, rattle, and machinery noise while improving surface movement and eliminating squeaks in complex mechanical systems.
Each case contains 12 rolls of tape, with each roll measuring 3/4 inch (1.9 cm) wide and 36 yards (32.9 m) long with a total thickness of 3.7 mil (0.09 mm). This product is engineered for industrial and occupational use only and is not intended for consumer applications. Whether used for roll-wrap in web processing, high-temperature wire bundling, squeak and noise reduction, lining of chutes and ducts, or as a chemical shielding solution, 3M PTFE Film Tape 5490 delivers reliable, durable performance that reduces friction and improves operational efficiency.
