3M Industrial Range polyurethane films for surface protection

      Polyurethane surface protection film 3M - armored tape

The polyurethane films in the 3M catalog are high-quality products that provide a true barrier against environmental, mechanical, or chemical aggressions.

These lesser-known products are incredibly effective, and our customers can test them for themselves: take a pen and try to puncture the polyurethane film—it’s impossible!

They protect various surfaces (wood, metal, painted surfaces, plastic, etc.) against:

• Impacts

• Shocks

• Punctures

• Tears

• Scratches

• Corrosion, thanks to excellent waterproofing.

They are widely used in various fields such as:

• Automotive for protecting rocker panels, headlights, and car bodies against road debris. For example, Le Mans 24-hour race cars are equipped with these films to prevent damage and protect sponsor ads. 3M's automotive division has developed a special PU film known for its high efficiency.

• Aerospace for protecting leading edges of helicopter blades and aircraft wings. It started during the Gulf War, where helicopters and aircraft faced harsh conditions with sand and wind damaging equipment quickly. 3M introduced a special aerospace adhesive polyurethane film, which became a significant advantage for the military, greatly enhancing productivity. 3M also developed another type of PU film with rubber-based adhesive for temporary indoor use, widely adopted by civil and military aviation.

• Wind turbines for protecting the leading edges of large blades exposed to wind, speed, and harsh weather. The polyurethane film is ideal for such situations and is highly appreciated by our clients in wind turbine maintenance.

It can also be used to protect bicycle forks, work surfaces subjected to friction wear (such as watches or fingernails).
