3M 7000144713 Ptfe Film Tape 5498 Beige 14in X 36yd 4mil

Product Description

The 3M 7000144713 is a beige extruded PTFE film tape in the 3M 5498 series, measuring 14 inches wide by 36 yards long at a 4.0 mil film thickness. It uses a non-silicone rubber adhesive, making it suitable for applications where silicone contamination is a concern. The PTFE film surface delivers an exceptionally slick, low-friction face once applied, and the tape is engineered to resist curling during unwind, which aids consistent application on long runs. Tradespeople and industrial technicians use this tape for sealing, masking, and surface-protection tasks that demand chemical resistance and non-silicone compliance.

This tape is designed for environments where silicone-free materials are required, such as certain electronics assembly areas, paint masking operations, or chemical-processing installations. Its chemically resistant PTFE surface holds up against a broad range of solvents and corrosive media. At 14 inches wide, the roll covers large sealing or masking surfaces efficiently, reducing the number of passes needed on wide substrates. It is well suited for both shop and field use by maintenance technicians, industrial insulators, and trade professionals handling specialty sealing applications.

Key Features

• 4.0 mil extruded PTFE film construction provides a durable, low-friction surface
• Non-silicone rubber adhesive meets silicone-free environment requirements
• Chemically resistant surface suitable for sealing and masking in harsh media
• Resists curling during unwind for consistent, clean application
• 14-inch width covers wide substrates in fewer passes
• Beige film color aids visual identification during masking operations

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose PTFE film tape for sealing and masking applications in industrial, mechanical, and trade settings where non-silicone materials are specified.

Installation Notes

Surface should be clean, dry, and free of oils or loose material before application. Apply consistent hand pressure or use a roller to achieve full adhesive contact across the tape width. In masking applications, remove the tape promptly after the process step is complete to prevent adhesive transfer. No special tools are required, but a tape dispenser with a blade is recommended for clean cuts on 14-inch-wide stock.
