3M Squeak Reduction Tape 5430 is a highly effective solution used in the automotive industry to control squeaks and rattles caused by vibration or wear of metal and plastic materials. This tape is made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE) film, which offers excellent chemical resistance and abrasion resistance, ensuring a long wear life. The tape is mounted on a liner, allowing for easy die-cutting to meet specific application requirements. It is particularly suitable for applications that require a low coefficient of friction and the movement of parts and/or materials.
Recommended Applications- Noise reduction on automotive instrument panels and interiors
- Noise reduction between rim fascia and painted metal
- Noise reduction on doors
- Protection of plastic and metal chutes, guide rails, and containers from wear
- Industrial sliding or wear applications
The effectiveness of 3M Squeak Reduction Tape 5430 lies in its Ultra-High Molecular Weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE) backing. UHMW-PE is a thermoplastic with exceptional hardness and low surface energy. The high molecular weight of this tape significantly reduces friction, making it an ideal solution for anti-stick and easy-release requirements. The abrasion resistance of UHMW-PE is even greater than that of PTFE and improves as the molecular weight increases.
Designers and engineers worldwide rely on the extraordinary durability and versatility of UHMW-PE in various industries. UHMW-PE based products offer exceptional attributes such as high abrasion resistance, low coefficient of friction, and one of the highest impact strength ratings among thermoplastics. These qualities make them perfect for demanding impact wear or sliding applications. While UHMW-PE tape has a slightly lower coefficient of friction compared to PTFE, it surpasses PTFE in terms of abrasion resistance. Our commitment to exceptional science and engineering ensures long-lasting performance and successful solutions.
