Premium UHMW polyethylene tape with superior abrasion and chemical resistance, featuring low friction slip plane technology for noise reduction and surface protection in industrial applications.
3M™ UHMW Film Tape 5425 is a premium ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene tape designed for demanding industrial applications requiring superior abrasion and chemical resistance. This transparent, thin-caliper tape creates a highly effective "slip plane" between surfaces to reduce friction and prevent wear, making it ideal for noise and vibration damping applications. The tape features an acrylic adhesive that provides excellent adhesion and chemical resistance in the most challenging environments, including exposure to solvents and oils.
This versatile tape is engineered for applications where lubrication is not feasible due to contamination concerns. The translucent, abrasion-resistant backing protects surfaces from wear while maintaining a low coefficient of friction that is surpassed only by PTFE. With exceptional hardness and low surface energy characteristics, UHMW-PE offers superior abrasion resistance compared to PTFE while maintaining excellent impact strength. The tape is mounted on a convenient liner, making it ideal for fabricating or die-cutting into various lengths and shapes for specific application requirements.
Commonly used in aerospace, automotive, printing, and MRO industries, 3M™ UHMW Film Tape 5425 effectively reduces squeaks, rattles, and vibration-related noises in metal and plastic assemblies. The 2 roll per case package provides 72 yards total coverage with each roll measuring 6 inches wide by 36 yards long at 5.1 mil thickness. This industrial-grade tape meets ASTM specifications and delivers long-lasting performance in conveyor systems, spray booth liners, tank and bin liners, drawer and cabinet slides, and aluminum sheet protection applications.
