3M 7010334788 Uhmw Film Tape 5421 Transparent 20in X 18yd

Product Description

The 3M 7010334788 is a UHMW polyethylene film tape designed for surface protection and friction reduction in industrial and mechanical applications. Built on a 5.0 mil translucent ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene backing with a rubber-based adhesive on a paper liner, this tape delivers durable abrasion resistance in a thin, conformable format. Measuring 20 inches wide by 18 yards long with an overall thickness of 6.7 mil, each roll provides significant coverage for wide chute linings, guide rail wraps, and similar high-wear surfaces. It is typically installed by maintenance technicians and equipment fabricators where surface wear and friction are ongoing concerns.

This tape is used in settings where plastic and metal components experience repeated contact, sliding loads, or vibrating parts. Common applications include lining conveyor chutes, wrapping guide rails, and protecting the interior surfaces of bins and containers. The low coefficient of friction characteristic of UHMW polyethylene also makes this tape a practical choice for dampening noise and reducing vibration between moving parts in light industrial equipment and automated handling systems. Minimum order quantity is 2 rolls per order.

Key Features

• 5.0 mil UHMW polyethylene backing provides abrasion resistance on high-wear contact surfaces
• Low coefficient of friction reduces sliding resistance on chutes, rails, and container interiors
• Rubber adhesive bonds to both plastic and metal substrates without mechanical fasteners
• Paper liner protects adhesive during handling and allows clean, controlled application
• 20-inch width covers broad surface areas in fewer passes, reducing installation time
• Translucent finish allows surface markings or labels beneath the tape to remain visible

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style protective film tape suitable for application to plastic and metal chutes, guide rails, bins, and containers in industrial and mechanical handling environments.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by maintenance technicians or equipment fabricators. De-energize or lock out any powered conveyor or automated handling equipment before applying tape to moving-contact surfaces. Clean and dry the substrate thoroughly before application to ensure proper adhesive bond. Avoid stretching the tape during application to prevent edge lifting over time.
