3M UHMW-PE film tape 5423 is often used in general industrial applications to help control squeaks and rattles due to vibration or wear of metal and plastic materials. This UHMW-PE (ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene) film tape provides good chemical resistance and excellent abrasion resistance that helps ensure a long wear life. 3M UHMW-PE film tape 5421 is mounted on a liner, making it easy to die-cut to meet the demands of specific applications. - 3M UHMW polyethylene tapes are film coated with a rubber adhesive which provides an excellent abrasion resistant surface. These tapes feature a unique combination of properties that make it ideal for many tough impact wear or sliding applications. It is ideal for applications requiring a low coefficient of friction and the movement of parts and/or materials. This slick surface tape is primarily used in aerospace, automotive, printing and MRO industries.
