Product Details
Used to protect surfaces from abrasion, 3M UHMW-PE Film Tape 5425 is a thin caliper general purpose polyethylene tape that creates a "slip plane" effect to allow contact without wear. This tape features a translucent, abrasion-resistant backing with a low coefficient of friction, helping to reduce squeaks, rattles, and other noises that occur with movement. It has a solvent and oil resistant adhesive providing high adhesion and chemical resistance in demanding applications, making it suitable where lubrication is not possible because of contamination. The tape is mounted on a liner, making it ideal for fabricating or die-cutting into various lengths and shapes for applications such as conveyor guide rails and chutes, spray booth liners, tank and bin liners, drawer and cabinet slides, and protecting aluminum sheets on stretch forming presses. The Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMW-PE) film provides excellent chemical and abrasion resistance for a long wear life, and the tape is used extensively in aerospace, automotive, printing, and MRO industries.
