3M 5151
General Purpose PTFE Glass Cloth Tape

General Information

5151 is a 4.5 mil. easy unwind glass cloth tape impregnated with PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) and coated with a silicone adhesive which provides high temperature resistance and a very strong, abrasion-resistant backing. Very low moisture absorption allows the tape to perform in many humid environments. 5151 tape provides greater tensile strength and resistance to tear and punture than typical PTFE film backed tapes. CAUTION: when PTFE film tape is exposed to temperatures above 400°F, small quantities of hazardous vapors may be released. Inhalation of these vapors may be harmful or may cause respiratory tract irritation. Do not heat or expose PTFE film tape to temperatures above 400°F. To obtain best performance, use this product within 12 months from date of manufacture and store under normal conditions of 60°F to 80°F and 40% to 50% relative humidity in the original carton.

The physical properties listed are typical values and are not to be considered as specifications. Our suggestions for use are based on tests we believe to be reliable. However, the purchaser must carry out their own tests to determine the suitability of the product for their internal use. Information is given in good faith, but without warranty.

It is essential, as with all pressure-sensitive tapes, that the surface to which the tape is applied be clean, dry and free of grease and oil.

Shelf life from date of manufacture is based on the product being stored at 70°F(21°C) / 50% relative humidity out of direct sunlight.

Specification compliance is dynamic and should only be used as a general guide. Always confirm that the tape you are interested in currently complies with all specification requirements. Please verify that the product number that you select is available in the proper size and color to meet your specification.
