Used to protect surfaces from abrasion, 3M UHMW Film Tape 3965 is a general purpose polyethylene tape that creates a "slip plane" effect to allow contact without wear. This tape features outstanding chemical resistance and a unique combination of properties that make it ideal for many tough impact wear or sliding applications.

  • Translucent, abrasion resistant backing helps protect surfaces from wear
  • Low coefficient of friction for “slip plane” effect between surfaces
  • Easy and clean removability from a variety of surfaces
  • Can help reduce squeaks, rattles and other noises that occur with movement
  • Provides easy clean-up surface for coating, inks, glues and sealants
  • Used in applications where lubrication is not possible because of contamination

Low Coefficient of Friction and Good Abrasion Resistance

3M™ UHMW Film Tape 3965 is a reliable solution for controlling squeaks and rattles caused by vibration or wear of metal and plastic materials in general industrial applications. This tape is made of UHMW-PE (ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene) film, which provides excellent chemical and abrasion resistance, ensuring a long wear life. The tape is mounted on a liner, making it easy to die-cut to meet specific application demands.

Recommended Applications
  • Conveyor guide rails and chutes
  • Spray booth liners
  • Tank and bin liners
  • Drawer and cabinet slides
  • Protecting aluminum sheets on stretch forming presses
The Science Behind 3M Tape

The effectiveness of 3M™ UHMW Film Tape 3965 lies in its Ultra-High Molecular Weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE) backing. UHMW-PE is a thermoplastic with exceptional hardness and low surface energy, making it an ideal solution for anti-stick and easy-release requirements. The ultra-high molecular weight of this tape significantly reduces friction, providing a reliable solution for controlling squeaks and rattles. The abrasion resistance of UHMW-PE is greater than PTFE and increases as the molecular weight increases.

Designers and engineers worldwide use the extraordinary durability and versatility of UHMW-PE in many industries. UHMW-PE based products offer high abrasion resistance, low coefficient of friction, and one of the highest impact strength ratings of any thermoplastic. These attributes make them ideal for tough impact wear or sliding applications. Although the low coefficient of friction characteristic is surpassed only by PTFE, UHMW-PE tape has superior abrasion resistance. Our exceptional science and engineering of products provide long-lasting performance and successful solutions.
