Product Description 3M UHMW Polyethylene Tape 5425 is an industrial grade tape product that can be applied as a protective, abrasion resistant, and solvent resistant UHMW polyethylene surface. This product features several advantageous characteristics such as high resistances to oils and solvents, low surface friction, high energy absorption for sound damping, and self-lubrication.
Applications Abrasion protection for rubber fuel cells Gaskets exposed to many corrosive chemicals Spiral wrap wire harness to resist hydraulic fluids Dissimilar metal separation to help prevent wear and chemical corrosion Excellent for wear surfaces where transparency is needed Guide rails and chutes requiring a more durable, solvent resistant slide surface
Feature 1 Translucent, abrasion resistant backing helps protect surfaces from wear
Feature 2 Low coefficient of friction for “slip plane” effect between surfaces
Feature 3 Solvent and oil resistant adhesive provides high adhesion and chemical resistance in the most demanding applications
Feature 4 Can help reduce squeaks, rattles and other noises that occur with movement
Feature 5 Bonds best to high surface energy materials
Feature 6 Used in applications where lubrication is not possible because of contamination
Feature 7 Provides good chemical resistance and excellent abrasion resistance helps ensure a long wear life
Feature 8 Will outwear PTFE and other materials in sliding applications
