3M™ UHMW Film Tape 5423, Transparent, 2 in x 18 yd, 12 mil, 6 Roll/Case
- 3M ID 7000035835
Details
Highlights
- INSTANTLY PROTECT SURFACES: Translucent, abrasion resistant backing protects surfaces from wear
- VERY LOW-FRICTION: Low coefficient of friction creates a 'slip plane' effect between surfaces
- POWERFUL ADHESIVE: Rubber adhesive creates instant adhesion on countless surfaces
- REDUCE UNWANTED NOISE: Can help reduce buzz, squeaks, rattles, and other noises that occur with movement
- Can help reduce squeaks, rattles and other noises that occur with movement
- BUILT-IN LINER: The peel-off liner makes it ideal for fabricating or die-cutting into various part-specific lengths, shapes, and sizes
- POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS: Flat conveyor guide rails and chutes, spray booth liners, tank and bin liners, drawer and cabinet slides, protecting aluminum sheets on stretch forming presses
3M™ UHMW-PE Film Tape 5423 is a thick, general-purpose polyethylene tape made for high-impact, abrasion, and sliding applications. Its UPMW-PE (ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene) thermoplastic backing enables its low-friction and resistance to chemicals, abrasion, and vibration in demanding situations. The exceptional hardness and slick surface is ideal for maintaining a gliding, 'slip-plane' effect and reducing noises like squeaks and rattles. Furthering its workability, 3M™ UHMW-PE Film Tape 5423 is mounted on a liner, allowing the user to die-cut shapes to exact specifications. Between its low-friction coefficient, built-in liner, and long-lasting protection, this slick-surfaced tape excels in the aerospace, automotive, printing, and MRO industries.
3M™ UHMW Film Tape 5423 helps protect plastic and metal chutes, guide rails and containers from wear. Can also help reduce squeaks, rattles and other noises that occur with movement of touching surfaces. The tape’s low coefficient of friction, combined with excellent abrasion resistance, offers an effective solution for many noise and vibration problems. The thick 10.0 mil backing provides an easy clean up surface for many coating or bonding applications involving various inks, glues or sealants while the liner makes it ideal for fabricating or die-cutting into various lengths and shapes.
Recommended Applications
Conveyor flat guide rails
Spray booth liners
Discharge chutes
Tank and bin liners
Drawer and cabinet slides
Feed and grain chutes
Protecting aluminum sheets on stretch forming presses
The outstanding abrasion resistance of 3M™ UHMW Film Tape helps it outwear many other materials in sliding applications extending service life. Because of the backing’s unique properties, it can often be used where lubrication is not possible because of contamination. This slick surface tape is primarily used in Aerospace, Automotive, Printing, and MRO industries.
