3M™ VHB Tape consists of a durable acrylic adhesive with viscoelastic properties. This provides an extraordinarily strong double-sided foam tape that adheres to a broad range of substrates, including painted metals, aluminum, stainless steel, galvanized steel, composites, and plastics, including acrylic, polycarbonate, ABS. This tape provides excellent shear strength, conformability, surface adhesion and temperature resistance. It is commonly used in applications across a variety of markets including transportation, appliance, electronics, construction, sign and display and general industrial. The 5952 family of 3M™ VHB Tape utilizes modified acrylic adhesive on both sides of a very conformable, adhesive foam core. It is specifically designed for good adhesion to high, medium and lower surface energy plastics and paints, metals and glass. Common applications for this tape include bonding and sealing panels to frame, display bonding, signage and decorative material bonding.
