Features
• Demonstrate good conformability when wrapping rollers.
• Provide excellent chemical resistance except to organic solvents.
Note:
The
silicone adhesive will be attached by commercial organic solvents; therefore
tapes are
NOT
recommended for applications requiring organic resistance.
CAUTION:
When PTFE film tape is exposed to temperatures above 600°F
(316°C), 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 tapes to temperatures
above 600°F (316°C).

up of sticky materials and inks can occur.
• Chemical resistant surface for sealing and masking.
