Slippery UHMW Tape | Andrew Roberts Inc
UHMW Tape (Ultra High Molecular Weight Tape) is a linear polymer with a pressure sensitive acrylic adhesive on one side. The UHMW film itself has a molecular weight 10 times that of conventional high density polyethylene resins. This allows for high abrasion resistance, outstanding impact strength, moderate chemical resistance, extreme slickness and superior sound dampening characteristics.
UHMW tape is available in widths up to 24″.
In addition, UHMW tape is more abrasion and puncture resistant than PTFE films. It is the ideal material for applications requiring high slip and durability.
The tape is supplied with a high tack acrylic, or natural rubber adhesive on one side.

- PTFE Roll Coverings
Better than PTFE spray coating. Better than shrink-fit tubing, Non-stick PTFE roll coverings fight residue build-up on flat surface rolls
- Skived PTFE Tape
These tapes are used widely on printing and duplicating machinery to help paper slide while remaining resistant to chemicals and ink.
- PTFE Belts
PTFE belts and belting materials are available for applications that require superior release characteristics, and thermal stability
- Skived PTFE Film
Skived PTFE film sheets are manufactured from virgin PTFE resins which are molded, sintered, and skived to the appropriate thickness.
- PTFE Fabric Tape
Our PTFE fabric consists of a fiberglass substrate which is then coated with PTFE. This combination provides a dimensionally strong non-stick surface
