Premium UHMW polyethylene tape with exceptional abrasion resistance, low friction properties, and superior chemical resistance for industrial noise and vibration damping applications
3M™ UHMW Film Tape 5425 is a premium ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene tape designed to protect surfaces from abrasion and wear in demanding industrial applications. This transparent, thin-caliper general-purpose polyethylene tape creates a unique "slip plane" effect between incompatible surfaces, allowing contact without wear while maintaining exceptional durability. The tape features outstanding chemical resistance, solvent and oil resistant acrylic adhesive, and a low coefficient of friction that makes it ideal for tough impact wear or sliding applications across aerospace, automotive, printing, and manufacturing industries.
With dimensions of 10 inches width by 36 yards length and a total thickness of 5.1 mil, this UHMW-PE tape is mounted on a convenient liner, making it easy to die-cut to meet specific application requirements. The translucent, abrasion-resistant backing helps protect surfaces from wear while the low friction properties help reduce squeaks, rattles, and other noises that occur with movement between parts. The tape operates effectively across a wide temperature range from -30°F to 225°F (-34°C to 107°C), making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor industrial applications.
The exceptional properties of UHMW-PE backing, including high abrasion resistance that exceeds PTFE and one of the highest impact strength ratings of any thermoplastic, ensure long-lasting performance and reliable protection. Ideal for conveyor guide rails, spray booth liners, tank liners, drawer slides, and protecting aluminum sheets on stretch forming presses, this tape provides an effective solution for applications where lubrication is not possible due to contamination concerns. Each case contains 1 roll and meets ASTM D3330, ASTM D3652, and ASTM D3759 specifications.
