3M™ VHB™ Tapes provide the convenience and simplicity of a tape fastener and are ideal for use in many interior and exterior bonding applications. In many situations, they can replace rivets, spot welds, liquid adhesives and other permanent fasteners. These 3M™ VHB™ Tapes are made with acrylic foam which is viscoelastic in nature. This gives the foam energy absorbing and stress relaxing properties which provides these tapes with their unique characteristics. The acrylic chemistry provides outstanding durability performance. The multi-purpose acrylic adhesive on both sides of a conformable adhesive foam core. The conformable adhesive foam core provides good contact, even with mismatched substrates. The combination of foam strength, conformability, and adhesion makes this family one of the most capable all-around 3M™ VHB™ tapes.
Applications: The adhesive provides excellent adhesion to a broad range of high and medium surface energy substrates including metals, glass, and a wide variety of plastics, as well as plasticized vinyl.
