Used to protect surfaces from abrasion, 3M™ UHMW-PE Film Tape 5421 is a thin caliper general purpose polyethylene tape that creates a “slip plane” effect to allow contact without wear. This tape features a unique combination of properties that make it ideal for many tough impact wear or sliding applications. 3M™ UHMW-PE Film Tape 5421 is a thinner version of 3M™ UHMW-PE Film Tape 5423.
- Translucent, abrasion resistant backing helps protect surfaces from wear
- Low coefficient of friction for “slip plane” effect between surfaces
- Rubber adhesive provides good initial tack for immediate bonding to material surface
- Can help reduce squeaks, rattles and other noises that occur with movement
- Used in applications where lubrication is not possible because of contamination
- Liner makes it ideal for fabricating or die-cutting into various lengths and shapes
