Features
Tapes demonstrated no evidence of wear through after Taber Abrasion at 1000
cycles, using CS-10 wheel and 1000g load when applied to S-37 mounting sheet.
Low water vapor transmission rate <0.50 g/100in.2/24hrs.
High-tack acrylic adhesive provides strong initial bond to many painted metal and
plastic surfaces.
Thick caliper UHMW polyethylene tape for extended service life as a protective
surface against tough impact wear or sliding applications.
Outstanding abrasion resistance so will outwear PTFE and other materials in sliding
applications.
Low coefficient of friction characteristics is exceeded only by PTFE.
UHMW-PE tape can be used where lubrication is not possible because of
contamination.
Liner makes it ideal for fabricating or die-cutting into various lengths and shapes.
Application Ideas
Automotive instrument panel and interior noise reduction.
Noise reduction between rim fascia and painted metal.
Noise reduction on doors.
Reduce squeaks, rattles and other noises that occur with movement
Industrial sliding or wear applications requiring very high adhesion.
Storage
Store under normal conditions of 60° to 80°F (16° to 27°C) and 40 to 60% relative
humidity in the original packaging material.
Shelf Life
To obtain best performance, use this product within 18 months from date of manufacture.
