Skived PTFE Film Adhesive Tapes

Skived PTFE Film Adhesive Tapes

Versiv Skived PTFE Tapes provide a conformable release surface and exhibit a remarkably low coefficient of friction and non-stick properties.
Due to the inherent nature of PTFE,  Versiv Skived PTFE Tapes are flexible, moisture resistant and unaffected by all chemicals. Other properties include non-porosity, excellent release, and a super-low coefficient of friction.
Skived PTFE Film tapes applications include high temperature coil and capacitor wrapping, composite bonding, masking and conveyor release linings.

Perfect for extreme temperature pressure applications, Versiv Skived PTFE Tapes and silicone adhesive composites perform in continuous operating temperatures from -73 °C to +260 °C.
Silicone-based adhesive systems also exhibit good chemical resistance, retain electrical properties and remove cleanly with little or no residue.
Acrylic Adhesive
The acrylic version of Versiv PTFE Coated Fabric tapes perform in continuous operating temperatures from -40 °C to +177 °C.
These PTFE tapes have excellent shelf life and exhibits increased strength and improved thermal capabilities at elevated temperatures.
Features and Benefits
  • Effective release: Excellent option for applications that require easy release and lack of adhesive residue, such as composite molding, packaging equipment and heat sealing.
  • Low coefficient of friction PTFE film: Reduced friction leads to improved efficiency and enhances the lifespan of components and equipment.
  • Thin and conformable: Skived PTFE tape is highly conformable with 300% elongation.
  • Chemically inert: The chemical inertness of PTFE skived film and silicone tape ensures that they remain stable, durable, and reliable when exposed to a wide range of chemicals. This property makes them essential materials in industries and applications where resistance to chemical corrosion, purity, and long-term performance are paramount.

Applications
Packaging
Excellent release surface on packaging equipment. Commonly used as a release liner in the production of adhesive tapes, labels, and stickers. It provides a non-stick surface that allows easy removal of adhesive products without leaving residue.
Heat Sealing
PTFE skived film with silicone adhesive is used in heat sealing applications, such as sealing bags, pouches, and packaging materials. Its non-stick properties prevent adhesion during the sealing process.
Electrical insulation
‍PTFE skived film with silicone adhesive is employed for electrical insulation, wire harnessing, and cable wrapping. Its excellent electrical insulation properties make it suitable for these applications.
Industrial Manufacturing
Roll coverings on plastic extruders and guide rails: PTFE skived film, with its inherent non-stick properties, provides an excellent surface for roll coverings on plastic extruders. This non-stick surface prevents molten plastic materials from adhering to the rolls during the extrusion process, reducing the risk of buildup and ensuring smooth operation.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
PTFE’s non-stick surface, resistance to high temperatures, and chemical inertness, combines with the properties of silicone and acrylic adhesives, which provide secure bonding to various substrates. The versatility of this material makes it valuable in multiple industries, improving efficiency and product performance.
