High-performance extruded PTFE film tape with silicone adhesive for friction reduction, non-stick applications, and noise damping in industrial machinery and equipment. Temperature range -65°F to 500°F with excellent chemical resistance.
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 innovative tape delivers an exceptionally low coefficient of friction, creating a smooth, non-stick surface that works across a wide variety of substrates. The extruded film backing resists curling when unwound from the roll and lies flatter than traditional skived PTFE film tapes, providing a more uniform non-skid surface for enhanced performance in demanding applications.
Designed specifically for reducing friction between moving surfaces, 3M PTFE Film Tape 5490 functions as an anti-stick or easy-release medium where pressure, temperature changes, and other factors may create adhesion. The silicone adhesive ensures clean removal from various surfaces without leaving residue, making it ideal for applications requiring temporary bonding solutions. The tape's remarkable chemical resistance enables it to withstand challenging industrial environments and serve as a temporary chemical barrier. With high strength and abrasion resistance, this tape reliably reduces friction, eliminates squeaks and rattles, and minimizes machinery noise across diverse industrial settings.
The tape operates across an impressive temperature range from -65°F (-54°C) to 500°F (260°C), making it suitable for both heated machinery and cold environments. Common applications include roll-wrap for web processing, high-temperature wire bundling and harnessing, squeak and noise reduction, lining of chutes and ducts, chemical shielding and protection, and mold release for composite bonding. With an 18-month shelf life and industrial-grade construction, 3M PTFE Film Tape 5490 represents a reliable, durable solution for friction reduction in manufacturing and processing operations.
