Introducing the revolutionary 3M™ PTFE Skived Film Tape 5480, a game-changer for industries requiring high-performance, non-stick surfaces. Crafted from skived polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), this tape is designed to provide an exceptionally slick surface with an extremely low coefficient of friction. Paired with a pressure-sensitive silicone adhesive, it ensures a smooth, non-stick layer over various substrates, enhancing the movement of web materials in numerous roll-wrap applications.
- Exceptionally Slick Surface: The skived film backing ensures superior conformability, offering an easy-release feature between surfaces that face adhesion due to pressure, temperature changes, and other factors.
- Enhanced Performance: It is engineered to improve surface movement, eliminate squeaks and rattles, and diminish machine noise, providing an efficient solution to friction-related challenges.
- Chemical Resistance: Acting as a temporary chemical barrier, PTFE is inherently resistant to chemicals, making this tape an ideal choice for applications requiring exposure to harsh substances.
- Wide Temperature Range: Suitable for use in a broad temperature spectrum, from -65°F / -54°C to 500°F / 260°C, ensuring reliability in extreme conditions.
Recommended Applications: This tape excels in various uses, including roll-wrap for web processing, high-temperature wire bundling, squeak and noise reduction, shielding against chemicals, and as a mold release agent for composite bonding. Its versatility and durability make it indispensable in sectors where sticky materials, inks, or high-temperature operations are common.
Usage and Maintenance: For optimal application, ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free of dust before applying. This tape is designed for quick and easy application and can be cut to size to fit specific requirements. For removal, gently peel off to maintain surface integrity. Regular checks are recommended to assess the tape's condition and adhesion in long-term applications.
