Premium UHMW polyethylene film tape with low-friction backing for high-impact, abrasion-resistant applications. Reduces noise and vibration while providing instant adhesion on multiple surfaces.
3M™ UHMW Film Tape 5423 is a thick, general-purpose polyethylene tape engineered for high-impact, abrasion, and sliding applications in demanding industrial environments. This premium tape features Ultra-High Molecular Weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE) thermoplastic backing that delivers exceptional low-friction performance and superior resistance to chemicals, abrasion, and vibration. The translucent, abrasion-resistant backing creates an effective 'slip-plane' effect between surfaces while protecting them from wear, making it ideal for applications where lubrication is not possible due to contamination concerns.
The tape's exceptional hardness and slick surface excel at reducing unwanted noises such as squeaks, rattles, and buzzing sounds that occur with movement and vibration. With a rubber adhesive that creates instant adhesion on countless surfaces, this UHMW-PE film tape provides reliable performance across aerospace, automotive, printing, and MRO industries. The low coefficient of friction characteristic is surpassed only by PTFE; however, this tape offers superior abrasion resistance, making it the ideal choice for tough impact wear or sliding applications.
Mounted on a peel-off liner, 3M™ UHMW Film Tape 5423 allows for easy die-cutting into part-specific lengths, shapes, and sizes, enabling fabrication flexibility for custom applications. The built-in liner makes it perfect for conveyor systems, spray booths, tank liners, drawer slides, and protecting aluminum sheets on stretch forming presses. Its 18-month shelf life and proven durability ensure long-lasting performance and successful solutions for industrial challenges.
