3M 7100132672 Ptfe Glass Cloth Tape 5453 Brown 1.5in X 36yd

Product Description

The 3M 7100132672 is a brown PTFE-impregnated glass cloth tape designed for high-temperature sealing, release, and insulation applications in industrial and process environments. Sold as a 1.5-inch-wide by 36-yard roll at 8.3 mil total thickness, this tape uses a silicone adhesive and a PTFE-coated glass cloth backing to deliver a durable, non-stick surface under sustained heat exposure. The thicker backing provides added puncture resistance and tensile strength compared to the thinner 5453 series predecessor, making it a reliable choice for demanding heat seal equipment and conveying systems. Installation is typically handled by maintenance technicians and equipment service professionals.

This tape is used on heat sealing machines as a release surface on sealing bars where a hot wire or heating element contacts plastic film. It also performs well as a liner on conveying chutes, troughs, and ducts to keep product flow smooth and reduce friction. The chemical resistance of the PTFE layer makes it suitable for process environments where exposure to solvents, oils, or aggressive media is common. The low moisture absorption characteristic helps maintain performance in humid or wet process conditions.

Key Features

• PTFE-impregnated glass cloth backing provides a slick, non-stick release surface under high heat
• Silicone adhesive rated for elevated temperatures common in heat seal and process equipment
• 8.3 mil total thickness offers greater puncture resistance and durability versus thinner tape versions
• Resistant to most chemicals with low moisture absorption for process environment use
• Suitable for heat sealer bars, conveying chutes, troughs, and duct lining applications
• Long-lasting, easy-release performance reduces downtime on production equipment

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or upgrade surface tape for heat sealing machines, conveying chutes, troughs, and process equipment requiring a high-temperature PTFE release liner.

Installation Notes

This tape is applied by maintenance technicians or equipment service personnel during scheduled downtime or equipment service. Power down and de-energize all heating elements before removing worn tape and applying new tape to sealing bars or equipment surfaces. Ensure the application surface is clean, dry, and free of adhesive residue before installation. Follow equipment manufacturer guidelines and applicable facility safety procedures when working near heat sealing or conveying equipment.
