3M™ PTFE Extruded Film Tape 5490

Thin surface solution for low friction and clean release performance

3M™ PTFE Extruded Film Tape 5490 is a high-performance non-stick, low friction tape designed to improve material movement and reduce buildup in industrial applications. Featuring an extruded PTFE (Teflon) backing with a silicone adhesive, it creates a smooth release surface ideal for web handling and processing environments.

This tape is engineered for applications where low friction and clean release are critical, such as roller wrapping, heat sealing equipment, and conveyor systems. Its thinner construction allows for smooth, flat application, making it ideal for precision surfaces where minimal build-up is required.

With long-term temperature resistance up to 500°F (260°C), 3M 5490 is widely used in packaging, converting, and manufacturing industries where heat, friction, and adhesion buildup are ongoing challenges.
