Rulon® Tape is manufactured from skived compounded PTFE Rulon® film material. The RU-Series is often referred to as bearing tape becuase its film surface is self-lubricating and its backing is conformable. Rulon combines a low coefficient of friction with high temperature stability.  It also offers outstanding abrasion resistance, which equates to a 500-fold increase in wear resistance over PTFE in rotating bearing tests.  The Rulon backing is chemically inert and offers excellent high temperature resistance. This tape construction is stable, non-toxic and weather resistant. 

Both Rulon® tapes have an 8.0 mil. substrate thickness and 2.0 mil. of pressure sensitive adhesive for the silicone system and 2.3 mil. of pressure sensitive adhesive for the acrylic system.
