3M 9324 UHMW-PE SQUEAK REDUCTION TAPE, BLACK, 1.75” WIDE, SOLD BY THE FOOT

3M 9324 UHMW-PE DESCRIPTION

3M 9324 UHMW-PE is an Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene industrial grade, noise reduction tape with an acrylic adhesive. It controls the squeaks and rattles emitting from metal and plastic parts due to vibration and ware.  3M 9324 UHMW-PE features: low surface friction, self-lubrication, high abrasion resistance and high impact strength. It’s an excellent option for covering sliding surfaces with tough impact wear, especially in situations where lubrication is not possible due to contamination concern.

Yes, 3M adhesive products are indeed expensive. A full length roll of 3M 9324 in this width will set you back about $700. Buying a full roll of 3M 9324 shouldn’t require cashing in your 401K. We sell this width of 3M 9324 by the foot, so you can buy just what you need and not get “rolled”.

3M 9324 UHMW-PE FEATURES

• Superior Abrasion Resistance provides long wear life

• Outlasts most PTFE tapes in sliding applications & abrasion resistance

• UHMW-PE backing virtually eliminates noise & vibration

• Low coefficient of friction for applications requiring slick surface

• High-tack acrylic adhesive provides strong initial bond

• Excellent adhesion to many painted metal and plastic surfaces

• One of the highest impact strength ratings of any thermoplastic

3M 9324 UHMW-PE RECOMMENDED APPLICATIONS

• Industrial sliding or wear applications requiring very high adhesion.

• Noise reduction on doors

• Noise reduction between rim fascia and painted metal

• Automotive instrument panel and interior noise reduction

THE SCIENCE BEHIND 3M 9324 UHMW-PE

The effectiveness of 3M 9324 UHMW-PE tape lies in its Ultra-High Molecular Weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE) backing. UHMW-PE is a thermoplastic that has a unique combination of exceptional hardness and low surface energy. The ultra-high molecular weight of this tape significantly reduces friction to create an effective solution for anti-stick and easy-release requirements. 3M 9324 has much higher abrasion resistance than PTFE tapes due to its higher molecular weight. 3M 9324 is used by designers and engineers in many industries worldwide because of its extraordinary durability and versatility.
