3M™ PTFE Film Tape 5490

• Non-stick PTFE film provides an exceptionally slick surface for easy clean-up
• Silicone adhesive provides clean removal from a variety of surfaces
• Wide temperature range for performance on heated machinery and equipment
• Extruded 3M™ PTFE Film Tape lies flatter than typical skived PTFE film tapes
• Excellent chemical resistance enables tape to withstand challenging applications
• High strength and abrasion resistance ensures reliability and performance to reduce friction, rattle and machinery noise
• Available in a wide selection of widths for custom processes

3M™ PTFE Film Tape 5490 uses an extruded polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) film backing. This tape offers an extremely low coefficient of friction which, in combination with a pressure sensitive silicone adhesive, creates a smooth, non-stick surface over a variety of substrates to assist in the movement of materials in many types of lay-flat applications.

Create smooth, non-stick surfaces over a variety of substrates with 3M™ PTFE Film Tape 5490. Our tape works with a wide temperature range to perform well on heated machinery and equipment. It 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 smooth, non-stick surfaces over a variety of substrates. Its thicker backing helps extend the service life over thinner versions when subjected to abrasion and wear, and has a high strength and abrasion resistance that ensures reliability and performance to reduce friction, rattle and machinery noise.
