Industrial UHMW-PE Tape

JVCC UHMW-PE-20 is a 20 mil ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene film tape with an aggressive acrylic adhesive. It is engineered for severe service applications requiring high chemical and abrasion resistance. The tape features an extremely low coefficient of friction, allowing materials to slide freely without slip-stick tendency. It serves as a durable replacement for Teflon in environments where high-temperature resistance is not required.

Low-Friction Wear Surface

The tape provides high impact strength and shock-absorbing properties on conveyors, chutes, and guide rails. Its natural translucent colour suits tool tables, fences, and furniture slides where a clean appearance is needed. The acrylic adhesive bonds reliably to metal and wood substrates in normal shop conditions. A blue poly film release liner protects the adhesive until application.

Sustained Abrasion Resistance

Under continuous sliding contact the UHMW polyethylene carrier outperforms PTFE in wear life while maintaining consistent release characteristics. The 18-yard roll on a 3-inch core supports extended production runs without frequent changeovers. Actual width measures 12.5 mm, approximately 5 % narrower than the nominal half-inch size. Made in the U.S. for automotive and mechanical maintenance teams.

Questions about this item

How do I apply the 12.5 mm wide UHMW tape onto a conveyor rub strip without trapping air bubbles?

Clean the surface thoroughly, peel the blue poly liner back gradually, and press the tape down with a firm roller from the centre outward to avoid trapped air. The aggressive acrylic adhesive bonds instantly.

When should I replace the tape on a high-cycle slide surface?

Replace it once the 20 mil film shows visible wear-through or the low-friction surface no longer lets materials slide freely, which typically occurs after extended abrasion in severe service.

What is the first performance limit reached during continuous heavy sliding loads?

The 20 mil UHMW film will abrade through before the acrylic adhesive fails, so film wear is the limiting factor under sustained high-friction use.
