VHB foam tape is a versatile high-strength double-sided foam tape that provides an extremely strong bond to many substrates. It can be used to assemble products in both interior and exterior applications. It’s a proven alternative to visible fasteners, and it builds strength over time, which is important to industrial manufacturers who need reliable bonded surfaces that hold up to harsh environmental conditions.
It is a great choice for assembling stiffeners in industrial manufacturing, and it also works well for attaching trim pieces, logos, or nameplates. It is virtually invisible after application and can go on a variety of surfaces, including smooth and structured, metals, and plastics.
The VHB tape family consists of durable acrylic adhesive with viscoelastic properties. This provides an exceptionally strong bond to a wide range of substrates, including aluminum, stainless steel, galvanized steel, composites, plastics, acrylic, polycarbonate, ABS, and painted or sealed wood and concrete. It offers excellent shear strength, conformability, surface adhesion, and temperature resistance. It is widely used across a variety of markets, including transportation, appliance, electronics, construction, sign and display, and general industrial.
This tape is a very conformable, pressure-sensitive, closed-cell acrylic foam tape with a PE film liner. It bonds to high, medium, and medium/low surface energy substrates.
It provides handling convenience, cushioning, damping, and impact resistance.
It is available in a variety of thicknesses, liner types, and colors. It is a pressure-sensitive, closed-cell acrylic foam tape with a modified acrylic adhesive on both sides. It is used for bonding high-surface energy plastics, metals, and glass.
VHB tapes are designed for permanent bonding. They can withstand water damage, solvents, extreme temperatures, and UV light. It is also lightweight, which helps to reduce material costs and improve the overall performance of the product.
They are also easy to use and can be cut to precise sizes and shapes. They are a simple, effective, and cost-effective way to improve the design of your products.
Choosing the right adhesive for your project can be difficult. It’s important to find a material that will adhere to the surface you need it to bond to, while still being flexible enough to fit into the shape of the object you want to bond. It also needs to be durable and waterproof, as well as resistant to moisture, solvents, UV light, and temperature extremes.
There are several different types of acrylic foam tapes available, so it is important to choose the one that will be best for your specific application. It is a good idea to read the technical data for each type, as it will give you more insight into the characteristics of the tape that will be best for your project.
