3M 7010333968 Ptfe Glass Cloth Tape 5153 1in X 36yd

Product Description

The 3M 7010333968 is a general purpose PTFE glass cloth tape sold as part of the 3M 5153 product line. It measures 1 inch wide by 36 yards long at a total thickness of 6.8 mil. The tape consists of a fiberglass cloth substrate fully impregnated with PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) and finished with a silicone pressure-sensitive adhesive on one side. The light brown color is characteristic of the PTFE-treated glass cloth construction. HVAC technicians, industrial maintenance crews, and equipment service professionals use this tape on heat sealing machines, conveying chutes, troughs, and process equipment where low friction, chemical resistance, and reliable release properties are required.

This tape is suited for light industrial and HVAC process applications where surfaces must resist sticking, withstand elevated temperatures, and hold up against repeated mechanical contact. Common install scenarios include lining conveying chutes and ducts, wrapping heat sealer platens, and protecting surfaces on process equipment that requires an easy-release, chemically resistant barrier. The silicone adhesive provides a secure bond to metal and other smooth surfaces, while the PTFE impregnation delivers a low-friction outer face that resists buildup and fouling during continuous operation.

Key Features

• 6.8 mil total thickness with PTFE-impregnated fiberglass cloth construction
• Silicone pressure-sensitive adhesive for secure bonding to metal and process surfaces
• PTFE surface resists most chemicals and provides low friction for easy release
• High tensile strength and puncture resistance from the woven glass cloth substrate
• Low moisture absorption suitable for high-humidity or washdown environments
• Designed for long-lasting performance on heat sealing and conveying equipment

Compatibility

Designed as a general purpose replacement or maintenance tape for heat sealing machines, conveying chutes, troughs, and ducts requiring a PTFE-coated, chemically resistant surface liner.

Installation Notes

Application is typically performed by maintenance technicians or equipment service personnel. The surface to be taped should be clean, dry, and free of oils or debris before application. Firm hand pressure or a roller should be used to ensure full adhesive contact along the entire tape length. Power down and de-energize any equipment before applying tape to internal components or heated surfaces.
