Product Description
JVCC UHMW-PE-5 UHMW Polyethylene Film Tape is a 5 mil ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene film with an aggressive acrylic adhesive. Its high chemical and abrasion resistance and extremely low coefficient of friction makes this a versatile engineering material for many severe service applications. Materials slide freely over tape surface with no-slip/stick tendency. High impact strength and shock-absorbing properties. Outwears PTFE many times over and is a good replacement when high-temperature resistance is not a requirement. Applications include: rub strips on conveyors; bearings and sliding surfaces; chutes and hopper liners; dead plates; wear pads; guide rails; tool tables and fences; furniture and drawer slides/runners. UHMW polyethylene tape is used primarily in automotive and mechanical applications. Meets automotive specs: Chrysler MS-CH612, Ford ESB-M3G123-B, GM 6419M. Wound on either a white paper or a blue film release liner (changes depending on the lot we received in last). Country of Origin: United States.
* Multiple cases may be shipped per package in order to minimize the charge for shipping.

QUESTION: Will this work on plastic rails for wood sliding cabinet doors?
ANSWER: Yes, it will adhere to just about anything. It provides a smooth glide.

QUESTION: How do you prepare the wood drawers to accept the tape?
ANSWER: The surface that your drawers glide on, should be smooth, clean, and dust/oil free. Use an alcohol or other solvent if you have any grease or residue. You can use the tape on a varnished surface as well. Consider adding a thin coat of polyurethane to the surface in question and that will give you a good surface for the tape product. Once it is dry just apply! This tape works great!

QUESTION: Will this work to protect edges of swivel barstools from hitting the counter?
ANSWER: For that type of application may just want to go with a conformable adhesive felt product such as JVCC FELT-06. JVCC UHMW-PE-5 is used more if need to create a surface materials can slide freely over.

QUESTION: Do I put a layer of the tape on the top and the bottom so it slides on itself?
ANSWER: We installed this only on one side of the rails of our 1940's kitchen drawers. It works great!

Great product!
JVCC UHMW-PE-5 UHMW Polyethylene Film Tape [5 mil carrier]
I bought this to use on an old French provincial dresser from the early ‘60’s. The wooden drawers were hard to use. Not anymore! This tape worked wonders!! The drawers now open and close with ease!! I would definitely recommend this! Not to mention, the price is amazing as well!! Thanks for such a great product and quick shipping as well!
hot melt rubber (synthetic)
Offers the widest range of application flexibility available. Exhibits excellent processing performance whether manually or automatically applied. Has superior tensile strength, adhesion properties and holding force which ensures consistent, reliable seals. Hot melt adhesive will bond faster to a surface which is referred to as quick-grab or quick-stick. It typically has higher tack (will feel stickier to the touch), but is also softer. It has lower heat resistance, shear resistance, and sometimes UV resistance than an acrylic adhesive. NOTE: it is called hot melt because the adhesive is applied hot by the manufacturer and then hardens as it cools (you do not need to apply heat to the tape yourself).
natural rubber
Properties are similar to that of hot melt rubber, but natural rubber often holds where other adhesives won't (recycled fibers, dust, cold, heat and heavy loads). It provides good overall adhesion and moisture resistance.
acrylic
Offer excellent performance, especially for applications in temperatures less than 40°F and greater then 120°F. It provides excellent clarity, has high shear strength, is usually more permanent/durable even when exposed to moisture, and it ages well over extended periods in fluorescent and sunlight. Since it remains clear for the life of the application and does not yellow over time it is ideal for applications such as sealing white cartons. While it has good initial adhesion it does take 24-48 hours to cure and to achieve its maximum bond strength (has gradual adhesion buildup). Another difference between hot melt rubber and acrylic adhesive is if you fold tape over making the two adhesive sides touch the acrylic adhesive will remain attached to the carrier (e.g. paper, film) while a hot melt adhesive will stick to itself and pull off of the carrier. It is the best choice for clarity, UV resistance and aging characteristics.
silicone
Is great for extreme temperature applications since silicone adhesive can work in continuous operating temperatures from -100°F to 500°F. They also exhibit good chemical resistance, retain electrical properties, and remove cleanly with little or no residue.
zinc oxide
Zinc oxide based adhesive formula is a skin-friendly adhesive which is commonly used on sports medicine tapes.
Thickness, AKA caliper or gauge, refers to the distance from one surface of a tape backing, or adhesive, to the other.
1 mil = 1/1000 of an inch
Examples: 1/16 inch = 62.5 mils; 1/32 inch = 31.25 mils
Lower gauge gloves are heavier - have thicker construction, fewer stiches knitted per inch and offer less dexterity.
Higher gauge gloves are lighter - have thinner/finer construction, more stitches knitted per inch and offer more dexterity.
Gloves offered typically runs from 7 to 18 (12 and 13 are in the middle of the scale).
