3M PTFE Film Tape 5491 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.

This 3M 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. We developed this tape as a quick and easy solution to reduce friction between moving surfaces. It functions as an anti-stick or easy-release medium where pressure, temperature changes and other factors may create a measure of adhesion.

Features:

• 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 applicationsHigh strength and abrasion resistance ensures reliability and performance to
• reduce friction, rattle and machinery noise
