Non-stick PTFE film tape with silicone adhesive for friction reduction, 6 in x 36 yd, 6.7 mil thickness, rated -65°F to 500°F, 2 rolls per case
3M™ PTFE Film Tape 5491 is a premium industrial adhesive tape featuring an extruded polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) film backing combined with a pressure-sensitive silicone adhesive. This brown tape measures 6 inches wide by 36 yards long with a total thickness of 6.7 mils, making it ideal for demanding industrial applications. The tape provides an exceptionally slick, non-stick surface that enables smooth material movement and reduces friction between moving surfaces in lay-flat applications.
The extruded PTFE film backing resists curling when unwound and lies flatter than typical skived PTFE film tapes, creating a more uniform non-skid surface. The silicone adhesive ensures clean removal from a variety of substrates without leaving residue. With a wide operating temperature range from -65°F to 500°F (-54°C to 260°C), this tape performs reliably on heated machinery and equipment. The tape offers excellent chemical resistance, making it suitable as a temporary chemical barrier in challenging industrial environments.
This product is sold as 2 rolls per case and is designed for industrial and occupational use only. Applications include roll-wrap for web processing, high-temperature wire bundling, squeak and noise reduction, lining of chutes and troughs, chemical shielding, and mold release for composite bonding. The tape's high strength and abrasion resistance ensure long-lasting performance while reducing machinery noise and vibration.
