Premium UHMW polyethylene film tape with transparent backing, exceptional abrasion resistance, and low coefficient of friction for industrial noise reduction and surface protection applications.
3M™ UHMW Film Tape 5425 is a premium ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene tape designed for protecting surfaces from abrasion and creating slip plane effects between incompatible surfaces. This transparent, thin-caliper general-purpose polyethylene tape features exceptional chemical resistance and outstanding abrasion resistance properties, making it ideal for tough impact wear and sliding applications across multiple industries. The tape combines low coefficient of friction with solvent and oil resistant acrylic adhesive to provide high adhesion and chemical resistance in the most demanding applications.
This specialized UHMW-PE film tape is particularly effective for automotive noise reduction, helping to reduce squeaks and rattles caused by vibration or wear of metal and plastic materials. The tape's unique properties make it an effective solution for many noise and vibration problems in industrial settings. With a maximum operating temperature of 225°F (107°C) and minimum of -30°F (-34°C), this tape performs reliably across a wide temperature range. The 5.1 mil total thickness with 3 mil backing provides optimal balance between durability and flexibility.
The product is mounted on a liner, making it ideal for fabricating or die-cutting into various lengths and shapes to meet specific application requirements. Commonly used in aerospace, automotive, printing, and MRO industries, the tape is recommended for conveyor guide rails, spray booth liners, tank and bin liners, drawer and cabinet slides, and protecting aluminum sheets on stretch forming presses. The 36-yard roll length in 4-inch width provides substantial coverage for most industrial applications.
