UNASCO ANTI-SEIZE TAPES ARE COMPOSED OF SPECIALLY FORMULATED, HIGH TEMPERATURE METALLIC POWDERS DISPERSED THROUGH A PTFE MATRIX.  AT LOW TEMPERATURES (<-436F/-260C), THE PTFE PROVIDES LUBRICITY, WHILE THE POWDERS ACT LIKE BEARING PLATES BETWEEN THE MALE AND FEMALE THREAD SURFACES.  AT HIGH TEMPERATURES (> 400F/230C), THE PTFE DEPOLYMERIZES, DEPOSITING THE HIGH TEMPERATURE POWDERS ON THE THREAD SURFACES, WHICH ACT AS A LUBRICANT DURING DISASSEMBLY.

UNLIKE ANTI-SEIZE PASTES AND COMPOUNDS, UNASCO ANTI-SEIZE TAPES ARE NON-CONTAMINATING.  THEY WILL NOT RUB, RUN, OR SQUEEGEE OFF, MAKING THEM IDEAL FOR PHARMACEUTICAL, BEVERAGE, AND FOOD INDUSTRIES.  UNASCO ANTI-SEIZE TAPES ARE PARTICULARLY EFFECTIVE IN AREAS WHERE MACHINERY OR FIXTURES ARE IMMERSED IN, OR WASHED WITH,WATER OR OTHER CORROSIVE LIQUIDS.
