3M 7010333730 Ptfe Skived Film Tape 5480 Gray 6x36yd

Product Description

The 3M 7010333730 is a gray PTFE skived film tape sold under the 3M 5480 product line. At 3.7 mil thick, it combines a skived PTFE film backing with a silicone adhesive system designed to withstand high temperatures and aggressive chemical environments. Each roll measures 6 inches wide by 36 yards long. The tape is conformable, making it well suited for wrapping irregular surfaces and curved components where a smooth, uniform release layer is required. Licensed tradespeople and manufacturing maintenance technicians are the primary installers.

This tape is used in industrial and manufacturing settings where a durable, low-friction release surface is needed. Common applications include wrapping conveyor rollers, drive rollers, and other rotating components to prevent adhesive or material buildup, reducing cleanup time between production runs. Its silicone adhesive bonds to metal and other smooth substrates while the PTFE surface layer provides chemical resistance and high-temperature performance. It also sees use in sealing and masking operations where conventional tapes would degrade under heat or chemical exposure.

Key Features

• 3.7 mil gray PTFE skived film construction for consistent thickness and surface uniformity
• Silicone adhesive rated for high-temperature service environments
• Conformable backing allows wrapping of curved and cylindrical surfaces
• Chemical resistant construction suitable for harsh industrial environments
• Creates a low-friction release surface to minimize material buildup on rollers
• 6-inch width and 36-yard length per roll for coverage on larger components

Compatibility

Designed for use as a roller-wrap release tape in industrial manufacturing processes; suitable for sealing and masking applications where high-temperature and chemical-resistant tape is required.

Installation Notes

Application is typically performed by maintenance technicians or manufacturing line personnel. The surface to be wrapped should be clean, dry, and free of oils or debris before applying the tape. When wrapping rollers, apply the tape under moderate tension to ensure full contact and eliminate air pockets. Avoid overstretching, which can reduce adhesive contact and cause edge lifting over time.
