Features
  • Our extruded film backing resists curling when unwound from the roll and lies flatter than skived PTFE film tapes, creating a more uniform non skid surface

  • Its thicker backing extends the useful life of the tape against abrasion and wear

  • We developed this high strength tape as a quick and easy solution to reduce friction between moving surfaces

  • It serves as an anti stick or easy release medium between surfaces where pressure, temperature changes and other factors may create a measure of adhesion

  • Applying 3M™ PTFE Film tape 5490 can help improve surface movement and eliminate squeaks and rattles and reduce machine noise

  • PTFE is chemical resistant and can be used as a temporary chemical barrier

  • The tape has a wide temperature use range, from 380 to 260 °C, making it suitable in a wide variety of applications

  • Flash breaking

  • What is PTFE tape?

  • Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is a synthetic material used in a variety of industries and applications to reduce the coefficient of friction

  • PTFE is used as a non stick coating for frying pans and other cookware because of its non stick property as well as high heat resistance

  • Its non conductivity makes it an excellent insulating material for electrical applications

  • It is very non reactive to numerous chemicals, partly due to the strength of carbon–fluorine bonds; making it very effective in containers and pipework for reactive and corrosive substances

  • PTFE reduces friction, wear and energy efficiency of machinery

  • Because of its low friction, PTFE is used in industrial applications where sliding action of parts is required, such as with bearings, gears, slide plates, etc

  • In these applications, it delivers significantly better performance than nylon and acetal

  • 3M has taken this versatile compound through an extrusion process to create a thin film, then paired the film with adhesive to make its PTFE tape

  • Innovative 3M PTFE tapes outperform competing tapes for reliability, endurance and ability to reduce friction

  • Extruded, calendered film tapes that resist curling during unwind for easy application

  • Non-stick PTFE film provides an exceptionally smooth surface when applied

  • Extruded 3M™ PTFE Extruded Film tape lies flatter than typical skived PTFE film tapes

  • Thicker backing helps extend the service life over thinner versions, when subjected to abrasion or wear

  • 3M™ PTFE Film tape 5490 uses an extruded polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) film backing, which has an extremely low coefficient of friction, in combination with a pressure sensitive silicone adhesive to create non-stick surfaces over a variety of substrates
