3M 7000050076 Uhmw Film Tape 5421 2in X 18yd Transparent

Product Description

The 3M 7000050076 is a UHMW (ultra-high-molecular-weight) polyethylene film tape in the 3M 5421 series, designed for surface protection and friction reduction on industrial components. The tape features a translucent 5.0 mil UHMW polyethylene backing bonded with a rubber-based adhesive on a paper liner. Each roll measures 2 inches wide by 18 yards long at a total thickness of 6.7 mil. The low coefficient of friction and strong abrasion resistance make it suitable for reducing wear on high-contact surfaces. Maintenance technicians and industrial service professionals apply this tape to protect equipment and reduce noise and vibration caused by surface contact.

This tape is used on plastic and metal chutes, guide rails, conveyors, hoppers, and containers where repeated contact causes surface wear or unwanted noise. It is well suited for both light manufacturing and industrial maintenance applications. The paper liner aids controlled application on curved or flat surfaces. Installations are common in production facilities, material handling systems, and equipment maintenance programs where reducing surface friction is a priority.

Key Features

• 5.0 mil UHMW polyethylene backing provides durable abrasion resistance
• Total tape thickness of 6.7 mil for consistent surface buildup
• Rubber adhesive bonds to plastic and metal substrates
• Low coefficient of friction reduces drag and wear on chutes and guide rails
• Paper liner for controlled, clean application
• Translucent finish allows underlying surface markings to remain visible

Compatibility

Designed as a protective and friction-reducing surface tape for metal and plastic industrial components including chutes, guide rails, hoppers, and containers subject to repeated abrasion or sliding contact.

Installation Notes

Clean and dry the target surface thoroughly before application to ensure full adhesive contact. Remove the paper liner gradually as the tape is laid down to avoid trapping air bubbles, and use a roller or squeegee to press the tape firmly into place. No special tools or trade licensing are required, though industrial maintenance technicians typically perform installations in production environments. Avoid stretching the tape during application, as this can reduce long-term adhesion.
