Its exceptional chemical resistance, ultra-low friction coefficient, and superior abrasion resistance make it an ideal solution for severe service applications where materials need to slide freely without adhesion or resistance.
Whether used for noise reduction, machinery protection, or conveyor systems, this UHMW Tape excels in environments requiring both performance and longevity.
Key Features:
• Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMW) film for maximum hardness and low surface energy.
• Exceptional chemical resistance to withstand harsh industrial environments.
• Outstanding abrasion resistance that surpasses PTFE, ensuring durability in sliding applications.
• Ultra-low friction coefficient for smooth, stick-free movement in high-wear conditions.
• Noise reduction properties that effectively reduce squeaks and rattles in machinery.
• Meets automotive specifications for high-performance industrial use.
Applications:
• Automotive noise reduction: Reduces squeaks and rattles in vehicle parts and machinery.
• Conveyor guide rails and chutes: Helps materials slide effortlessly with minimal wear.
• Drawer and cabinet slides: Ideal for reducing friction and noise in sliding mechanisms.
• Roller wrapping and wire harnessing: Provides a protective, low-friction surface for moving parts.
• Sound damping in machinery: Absorbs and mitigates vibrations for quieter operation.
The Science Behind:
The effectiveness of WOD SPTA Film Tape lies in its ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMW) backing, which offers a unique combination of high hardness, low surface energy, and excellent wear resistance.
The tape’s abrasion resistance exceeds that of PTFE, ensuring reliable performance even in harsh, high-wear applications. With its ultra-low coefficient of friction, it reduces friction and wear in machinery, providing smoother operation and longer-lasting performance.
