Description: PTFE films provide a conformable release surface and exhibit a remarkably low coefficient of friction and non-stick properties. PTFE films have high temperature resistance and are virtually unaffected by all chemicals. At elevated temperatures, PTFE film still retains excellent tensile strength. Service temperatures range from -100°F to +500°F (-73°C to 260°C). This tape uses an acrylic adhesive system. Acrylic adhesves perform in continuous operating temperatures from -40°F to +375°F (-40°C to +188°C). Benefits include exceptional solvent resistance, excellent adhesion to metal, superior weathering and aging characteristics. Acrylics have an excellent shelf life, and when exposed to elevated temperatures, their ability to wet-out improves thus increasing both adhesion and tack properties. All data based on a 0.0115 inch test sample.(Thickness given is for both backing and adhesive. Backing thickness is .010 inches.)
