Premium UHMW polyethylene film tape with low-friction backing, powerful rubber adhesive, and built-in liner for die-cutting. Ideal for noise reduction, surface protection, and sliding applications in aerospace, automotive, and industrial environments.
3M™ UHMW Film Tape 5423 is a premium thick, general-purpose polyethylene tape engineered specifically for high-impact, abrasion-resistant, and sliding applications. This industrial-grade tape features Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMW-PE) thermoplastic backing that delivers exceptional low-friction performance and outstanding resistance to chemicals, abrasion, and vibration in the most demanding industrial environments. The translucent, abrasion-resistant backing creates an effective 'slip-plane' effect between surfaces while protecting them from wear and damage. With its powerful rubber adhesive providing instant adhesion to countless surfaces and a built-in silicone-treated kraft liner for easy die-cutting, this tape excels in aerospace, automotive, printing, and MRO applications.
The exceptional hardness and slick surface of 3M™ UHMW Film Tape 5423 make it ideal for reducing unwanted noise such as squeaks, rattles, and buzzes caused by vibration or wear of metal and plastic materials. Its low coefficient of friction characteristic is surpassed only by PTFE; however, this tape offers superior abrasion resistance, making it the ideal choice for applications where lubrication is not possible due to contamination concerns. The tape is mounted on a 60# densified kraft paper liner treated with silicone, making it perfect for fabricating or die-cutting into various part-specific lengths, shapes, and sizes to meet exact application requirements.
Recommended for use in flat conveyor guide rails and chutes, spray booth liners, tank and bin liners, drawer and cabinet slides, and protecting aluminum sheets on stretch forming presses, this versatile tape delivers long-lasting performance and successful solutions across multiple industries. Each case contains 2 rolls, with each roll measuring 6 inches wide by 18 yards long and 12 mil thick, providing industrial professionals with a reliable solution for noise and vibration damping applications.
