Applications
Heat sealers and packaging equipment
PTFE heat sealing tape provides a release surface on compatible sealing equipment to help reduce sticking and material build-up. Check the equipment manufacturer's requirements for tape construction, width, thickness and adhesive placement. See our heat sealing tape collection for the available product.
Roller coverings and process machinery
Use on suitable rollers, drums, turnbars and formers where a low-friction release surface is required. Confirm that the tape dimensions and adhesive are compatible with the surface and process.
Features
- PTFE-impregnated glass cloth backing for industrial release applications.
- Non-stick surface to help reduce material build-up on compatible machinery.
- Pressure-sensitive silicone adhesive backing.
- 7 mil total thickness.
- Available in 1-inch and 2-inch widths, each on a 36-yard roll.
How to choose the right size
Select a width that matches the equipment's required coverage. Allow for the tape's 7 mil total thickness when checking clearances. Both listed widths come in a 36-yard roll. For a larger order or a custom-size enquiry, contact APT with your equipment details, required dimensions and order quantity.
Application guidance
Follow the equipment manufacturer's maintenance and tape-replacement instructions. Apply to a clean, dry, compatible surface using a preparation method approved for the equipment and substrate. Press the adhesive evenly into contact and check that the tape sits flat. Test the installation under representative operating conditions before returning the equipment to routine production.
Teflon tape questions
What is Teflon glass cloth tape used for?
It is used to provide a non-stick release surface on compatible heat sealers, packaging equipment and selected process machinery. Roller coverings are another listed application.
Is this PTFE adhesive tape?
Yes. This product uses PTFE-impregnated glass cloth with a silicone adhesive backing. It is a reinforced glass cloth construction, rather than a plain PTFE film tape.
Does the tape have an adhesive backing?
Yes. One side has a pressure-sensitive silicone adhesive for attachment to a suitable surface.
Can I use it on my heat sealer?
Heat sealing is a listed application. Confirm the equipment's requirements for tape width, thickness, temperature exposure and adhesive placement before selecting a replacement. Contact APT if you need help checking the product against your application.
What temperature can this tape withstand?
Contact APT for the confirmed operating temperature and exposure-duration limits for this specific tape. Select using the rating of the complete tape construction, including the adhesive, and your equipment's requirements.
Which width should I choose?
Choose between the listed 1-inch and 2-inch widths based on the coverage specified for your equipment. Check the required thickness and roll length as well as the width.
Is this the same as plumbing thread-seal tape?
No. This product is adhesive-backed PTFE glass cloth tape for industrial release applications. It is not the non-adhesive PTFE thread-seal tape used on suitable threaded pipe connections.
