Premium PTFE film tape with silicone adhesive for friction reduction, chemical resistance, and wide temperature range (-65°F to 500°F). Industrial-grade 4-inch wide tape with non-stick surface for machinery and equipment applications.
3M™ PTFE Film Tape 5490 is a premium industrial-grade adhesive tape featuring an extruded polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) film backing with a pressure-sensitive silicone adhesive. This specialized tape delivers an exceptionally low coefficient of friction, creating a smooth, non-stick surface ideal for reducing friction between moving surfaces and eliminating squeaks and rattles in machinery. The tape lies flatter than typical skived PTFE film tapes, providing a more uniform non-skid surface that resists curling when unwound from the roll.
Designed for demanding industrial applications, this PTFE film tape offers excellent chemical resistance and can withstand a wide temperature range from -65°F (-54°C) to 500°F (260°C), making it suitable for both heated machinery and extreme temperature environments. The silicone adhesive provides clean removal from a variety of surfaces without leaving residue, while the extruded PTFE backing ensures durability and reliability in high-performance applications. With a tensile strength of 22 lb/in and a backing thickness of 2 mil (0.05 mm), this tape combines strength with flexibility for optimal performance.
Each mini case contains 3 rolls of 4-inch wide tape with 72 yards per roll, totaling 216 yards of coverage. 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. This industrial tape is designed exclusively for occupational and industrial use, meeting the highest standards for manufacturing, aerospace, automotive, electronics, and metalworking applications.
