Industrial-grade PTFE film tape with silicone adhesive for friction reduction, non-stick applications, and noise reduction on heated machinery. Brown, 3 inch width, 36 yard length, 3.7 mil thickness. Temperature range -65°F to 500°F. Case of 3 rolls.
3M™ PTFE Film Tape 5491 is a premium industrial-grade adhesive tape featuring an extruded polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) film backing combined with a pressure-sensitive silicone adhesive. This exceptional tape offers an extremely low coefficient of friction, creating a smooth, non-stick surface over a variety of substrates. The brown-colored tape measures 3 inches in width and 36 yards in length, with a total thickness of 3.7 mil, providing optimal performance for lay-flat applications where material movement and friction reduction are critical.
The tape's extruded PTFE backing resists curling when unwound from the roll and lies significantly flatter than traditional skived PTFE film tapes, creating a more uniform non-skid surface. This design makes it an ideal quick and easy solution for reducing friction between moving surfaces, functioning 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 a variety of surfaces without leaving residue or causing damage to underlying materials.
With a wide operating temperature range from -65°F to 500°F (-54°C to 260°C), this tape is suitable for use on heated machinery and equipment in demanding industrial environments. The 3M™ PTFE Film Tape 5491 delivers excellent chemical resistance, high strength, and superior abrasion resistance, making it reliable for reducing friction, eliminating squeaks and rattles, and reducing machine noise. Each case contains 3 rolls, making it convenient for bulk industrial applications.
