3M 7000050124 Ptfe Film Tape 5481 Gray 1in X 36yd 6.8 Mil

Product Description

The 3M 7000050124 is a heavy-duty skived PTFE film tape with a high-temperature silicone adhesive backing, sold as a 1-inch-wide by 36-yard roll at 6.8 mil total thickness. The gray PTFE film construction delivers chemical resistance, conformability, and inherent self-lubricating properties that hold up in demanding industrial and manufacturing environments. Licensed tradespeople and industrial maintenance technicians reach for this tape when a non-stick, heat-resistant surface treatment is required on rollers, belts, or contoured components. The silicone adhesive bonds reliably across a wide temperature range without leaving residue that would contaminate substrates.

This tape is commonly applied in manufacturing and processing operations where sticky materials, inks, or adhesives tend to build up on rollers, plates, and conveyor belts. Wrapping rollers with PTFE film tape reduces cleanup time and extends the service life of the wrapped surface. It is also used for sealing or masking contoured surfaces to protect them from chemical exposure and mechanical wear. Typical environments include print shops, packaging lines, and industrial fabrication facilities where surface contamination control is a recurring maintenance need.

Key Features

• Skived PTFE film construction provides a smooth, self-lubricating surface that resists buildup of inks and adhesives
• High-temperature silicone adhesive maintains bond integrity under elevated heat conditions
• Conformable film adapts to contoured and irregular surfaces for consistent coverage
• Strong chemical resistance protects underlying surfaces from solvents, acids, and process chemicals
• 6.8 mil total thickness delivers heavy-duty durability without excessive stiffness
• 36-yard roll length reduces changeover frequency in high-use applications

Compatibility

Designed for use on rollers, plates, belts, and contoured surfaces in industrial manufacturing and processing applications where non-stick, chemical-resistant surface protection is required.

Installation Notes

Surface preparation is critical before applying PTFE film tape — clean the substrate thoroughly and ensure it is dry and free of oils or contaminants. Apply firm, even pressure along the tape length to achieve full adhesive contact, using a roller or squeegee tool where practical. When wrapping cylindrical rollers, maintain consistent tension and overlap to eliminate gaps or air pockets. No special trade license is required, but follow your facility safety protocols and any applicable equipment lockout procedures before servicing machinery.
