Product Review

JVCC UHMW-PE-20 UHMW Polyethylene Film Tape is a 20 mil ultra high molecular weight polyethylene film with an aggressive acrylic adhesive. Its high chemical and abrasion resistance and extremely low coefficient of friction makes this a versatile engineering material for many severe service applications. Materials slide freely over tape surface with no slip/stick tendency. High impact strength and shock absorbing properties. Outwears Teflon trade; many times and is a good replacement when high temperature resistance is not a requirement. Applications include: rub strips on conveyors; bearings and sliding surfaces; chutes and hopper liners; slide tape replacement on top of track saws, dead plates; wear pads; guide rails; tool tables and fences; furniture and drawer slides/runners. UHMW polyethylene tape is used primarily in automotive and mechanical applications. Wound on a blue poly liner. NOTES: Sizes shipped will typically be the tape industry standard metric-cut sizes, i.e. 24mm for each 1 inch of nominal tape width ordered (rolls are approximately 5% narrower than the nominal size). This product's actual size is 12.5mm wide. This tape is typically cut to width from log rolls so most sizes ship on non-branded plain white cores.Technical InformationCore: 3 inch diameterBacking/Carrier: UHMW (Ultra High Molecular Weight) polyethylene filmAdhesive: acrylicRelease Liner: blue poly filmThickness: 21.8 mils (carrier, adhesive) 1.8 mils (adhesive) 20 mils (carrier)Adhesion: 60 ounces per inch (to stainless steel test panel) Tensile Strength: 50 pounds per inch (longitudinal) Service/Operating Temperature: up to 300FElongation: 300 %.
