Description
ATD-UHMW-20A Polyethylene Tape is a high-performance engineering tape made from Ultra High Molecular Weight (UHMW) polyethylene.
It is available in 3 mil, 5 mil, 10 mil, 15 mil, and 20 mil thicknesses, all coated with an aggressive acrylic adhesive.
This UHMW tape provides excellent chemical resistance, superior abrasion resistance, and an extremely low coefficient of friction.
Materials slide easily across its surface without slip or stick, making it a reliable option for severe service applications.
With high impact strength and shock-absorbing properties, ATD-UHMW-10A outwears Teflon™ when high temperature resistance is not required.
It is widely used for conveyor rub strips, bearings, sliding surfaces, chutes, hopper liners, dead plates, wear pads, guide rails, and drawer slides.
Industries served include automotive, mechanical, packaging, and material handling.
Models UHMW-3A, 5A, 10A, and 15A meet key automotive specifications: Chrysler MS-CH612, Ford ESB-M3G123-B, and GM 6419M.
The tape is supplied with a durable liner:
-
UHMW-3A, 5A, 10A, & 15A → white paper liner (4 mil)
-
UHMW-20A → blue poly liner
All supplied on a 3” plastic core. Film color: natural transparent.
