UHMW Tape

 

Ultra high molecular weight tape (UHMW Tape) is a linear polymer with a molecular weight 10 times that of conventional high density polyethylene resins. This allows for high abrasion resistance, outstanding impact strength, moderate chemical resistance, extreme slickness and superior sound dampening characteristics.

UHMW/ Polyethylene is more abrasion resistant than PTFE films.  This substrate resists puncture and gouging under pressure and load.  It is the ideal material for applications requiring high slip and durability.  UHMW/Polyethylene is FDA approved and suitable for temperatures up to 225°F (107°C) The tape is supplied with a high tack acrylic, or natural rubber adhesive on one side.
