3M Adhesive Tape 5425

The 3M™ UHMW Polyethylene Sliding Tape 5425 offers exceptional abrasion resistance and sliding properties and reliably protects sensitive surfaces from wear. The 0.11 mm thick, transparent adhesive tape made of UHMW (Ultra-High Molecular Weight) polyethylene creates a low-friction, slippery surface that allows contact without material removal—ideal for applications requiring abrasion resistance, noise reduction, and chemical resistance.

Thanks to its oil- and solvent-resistant acrylate adhesive, the tape adheres excellently to materials with high surface energy. It is particularly suitable for reducing squeaking, rattling, and vibration noises in machines and equipment. In addition, the integrated release liner makes it easy to process into die-cut parts—in various lengths and shapes, depending on the application requirements.

Typical applications include the automotive, aerospace, and printing industries as well as maintenance and repair, where a durable, abrasion-resistant, and slippery surface is required. The 3M™ UHMW Sliding Adhesive Tape extends the service life of components and ensures quiet, low-friction operation even under demanding conditions.
