3M Glass Fabric Adhesive Tape 5453 Brown 50 mm x 33 m 0.21 mm 7000144794

Adhesive tape for coating plastic film welding equipment and as a sliding coating with high mechanical strength and an adhesive-repellent surface. For demanding applications that require increased durability, 3M (TM) PTFE Glass Fabric Tape 5453 is the right choice. 5453 is resistant to most chemicals and provides a fast and durable solution to reduce buildup on packaging and heat sealing machines. It serves as a longer lasting, non-stick or easily removable medium between surfaces where pressure, temperature fluctuations and other factors can create a level of adhesion. PTFE is chemical resistant and can be used as a temporary chemical barrier. The tape has a wide temperature application range from 73°C to 260°C, making it suitable for a variety of high temperature applications. Recommended applications Heat sealing machines Ironing and pressing equipment High temperature bundling Mould separation in composite materials Provides a good barrier for the separation of dissimilar parts What is PTFE? Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is a synthetic material used in a variety of industries and applications to reduce the coefficient of friction. Due to its non-stick properties and high heat resistance, PTFE is used as a non-stick coating for frying pans and other cookware. Due to its non-conductivity, it is an excellent insulating material for electrical applications. PTFE is non-reactive to numerous chemicals due to the chemical resistance of fluoropolymer compounds and therefore works in containers and pipelines for reactive and corrosive substances. PTFE reduces friction, wear and energy efficiency of machines. Due to its low friction, PTFE is used in industrial applications where sliding action of parts is required, such as bearings, gears, sliding plates, etc. In these applications, it offers significantly better performance than nylon or acetal.
