Used to protect surfaces from abrasion, 3M UHMW-PE Film Tape 5421 is a thin caliper general purpose polyethylene tape that creates a "slip plane" effect to allow contact without wear. This tape features a unique combination of properties that make it ideal for many tough impact wear or sliding applications. 3M UHMW-PE Film Tape 5421 is a thinner version of 3M UHMW-PE Film Tape 5423.

  • Translucent, abrasion resistant backing helps protect surfaces from wear
  • Low coefficient of friction for “slip plane” effect between surfaces
  • Rubber adhesive provides good initial tack for immediate bonding to material surface
  • Can help reduce squeaks, rattles and other noises that occur with movement
  • Used in applications where lubrication is not possible because of contamination
  • Liner makes it ideal for fabricating or die-cutting into various lengths and shapes

An Effective Solution for Many Noise and Vibration Problems

3M UHMW-PE Film Tape 5421 is a versatile product that is commonly used in various industrial applications to address issues related to noise and vibration. It is particularly effective in controlling squeaks and rattles caused by the wear and vibration of metal and plastic materials. This film tape is made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE), 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 widely used in aerospace, automotive, printing, and MRO industries, where a low coefficient of friction and the movement of parts and materials are essential.

Recommended Applications
  • Conveyor guide rails and chutes
  • Spray booth liners
  • Tank and bin liners
  • Drawer and cabinet slides
  • Protecting aluminum sheets on stretch forming presses
The Science Behind 3M Tape

The effectiveness of 3M UHMW-PE Film Tape 5421 lies in its unique Ultra-High Molecular Weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE) backing. UHMW-PE is a thermoplastic with exceptional hardness and low surface energy. The ultra-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 in various industries worldwide rely on the extraordinary durability and versatility of UHMW-PE. Products based on UHMW-PE offer exceptional attributes, including high abrasion resistance, low coefficient of friction, and one of the highest impact strength ratings among thermoplastics. These qualities make UHMW-PE ideal for applications involving tough impact wear or sliding. While the low coefficient of friction characteristic is only surpassed by PTFE, UHMW-PE tape offers superior abrasion resistance. Our commitment to exceptional science and engineering ensures long-lasting performance and successful solutions.
