3M™ Glass Cloth Tape 5453 Brown 50 mm x 33 m

Introducing the 3M™ 5453, this is a premium Brown PTFE Glass Cloth tape that offers a slick surface on process machinery and offers an extremely low coefficient of friction. The woven glass backing incorporates PTFE, which is great as it resists chemicals and has a high heat resistance making it useful on hot sealing machines or pressing equipment.

The 5453 tape from 3M™ is what you need for high strength applications requiring durability. Offers a durable solution to help reduce the build-up on packaging lines. A wide temperature range from 73°C to 260°C makes it suitable for high-temperature applications.

Features and Benefits

Premium glass cloth reinforced backing provides greater tensile strength and resistance to tears and punctures than typical PTFE film backed tapes

Silicone adhesive offers high-temperature performance and long ageing

Provides a non-stick, low friction surface on heat sealing and packaging equipment

Thicker backing helps extend the service life over thinner versions when subjected to abrasion and wear

Performs under a wide range of temperatures, including up to 500°F/260°C

Very low moisture absorption allows the tape to perform in many humid environments

Excellent chemical resistance enables the tape to withstand challenging applications

Typical Applications

It’s primarily used in the aerospace, automotive, military, roofing, speciality vehicle and shipbuilding industries for fabric splicing, seaming and sealing panels, heavy duty masking, bundling, holding and harness wrapping.
