WOD SPT7A UHMW Polyethylene Transparent Film Slick Tape, 1/2 inch. x 36 yd. Aggressive Adhesive - Ideal For Squeak Reduction, Drawers, and Bearings

Most of the negative reviews are from people who clearly did not figure out how to use the tape. "No adhesion at all" for example is just dumb. Once you get the backing tape off (non-trivial undertaking, unfortunately) it has terrific adhesion and make drawers slide LOTS easier.I have one drawer in particular that is filled with heavy stuff (a 5" stack of product manuals and a TON of drill bit including a couple of 60-bit sets plus others). This drawer has been a real pain to open/close 'cause the weight in it causes the plywood-to-plywood movement a be very difficult. I put two strips of this tape on each side of the drawer bottom and each side of the base it rides on, and now the drawer is very easy to open/close.I recommend this product even though getting the backing tape off is sometimes likely to cause the invocation of several words you probably don't want your children to hear.

I added this to old sodden drawers that did not have rollers. It stuck well to the raw wood and has been great with smooth glide of the drawers.

Used tape to line a homemade router flattening sled. Sticks nice to wood sled and really help make router slide effortlessly

Smooth, easy to apply!

Ordered to address curtain robots that would not cross the extension joint and change in diameter of extension drapery rods. Used several layers on smaller bar and covered entire width from center over all layers for smooth operation. Added to shower curtain rod as well. I'm planning to use this on antique wood bottom drawers to reduce friction and wear.

I have a gorgeous, 1930s vintage solid mahogany desk, originally from the DuPont company, in use in my home office since the 70s. For a number of years, I've been concerned about the wood-to-wood contact between the bottom drawer sliders and the frame itself, and the wear it produces., but I was unaware of any effective remedy.Then I happened upon this product on Amazon and decided to give it a try. A few reviewers commented that they had some issues re the strength of adhesion of the tape. I strongly recommend prepping the wood surface to be taped by cleaning them with rubbing alcohol followed by ample drying time. After applying the tape, I pressed it against the wood surface with my fingers (working from the center to the edges) and then burnished the tape surface with the metal barrel of a ballpoint pen (any smooth plastic tool would do). The resulting adhesion is incredible.But the best part came after reinstalling and sliding the drawers open and shut. Gone completely was the dry rubbing sound (and dust production). The drawers, even those carrying the most weight, now glide quietly and smoothly, as though on Teflon bearings.Thanks to this tape, this beautiful and well used piece of furniture is now ready for decades more use. Buy it with no worries!

Drawer slides

Used it to coat the rip fence on my table saw. It works well for that but I dont think it will last like the 10 mil product. Disappointed but we'll see, be happy to update it later.
