3M Attachment Tape with Double-Sided Acrylic Foam

Key Features:

• Double-Sided Adhesive: The tape features strong acrylic foam on both sides, providing a durable and reliable bond on various surfaces.
• Superior Bonding Strength: It creates a robust bond on materials like metal, plastic, and painted surfaces, making it ideal for automotive applications that require a long-lasting hold.
• Weather Resistant: This tape is designed for both interior and exterior use, offering excellent resistance to environmental factors like UV rays, temperature fluctuations, moisture, and harsh weather conditions.
• Vibration Damping: The foam core of the tape also helps dampen vibrations, which is particularly useful for automotive applications to reduce noise and stress on bonded parts.
• No Drilling or Screws: The tape offers a clean and efficient alternative to mechanical fasteners, eliminating the need for drilling holes or using screws. This feature is beneficial for maintaining the aesthetic integrity of surfaces.
• Easy Application: The tape is simple to apply, and it’s easy to cut to the desired size for specific bonding tasks.

Automotive Uses:

• Trim Attachment: Used for bonding automotive trim, molding, and weatherstripping to the vehicle body or frame.
• Emblems and Logos: The tape is commonly used for affixing emblems, logos, and badges on vehicles.
• Panel Bonding: Can be used to bond panels, such as interior door panels or exterior body panels, securely in place.
• Mirrors and Accessories: Ideal for mounting mirrors, trim pieces, and other small automotive accessories that require a strong bond but no visible fasteners.

Application Tips:

1. Surface Preparation: Clean the surfaces thoroughly to remove dirt, oil, and other contaminants. A clean, dry surface ensures the best bond.
2. Application Temperature: It is essential to apply the tape at the right temperature, typically between 50°F and 100°F (10°C to 38°C), for optimal bonding strength.
3. Pressure Application: Apply firm pressure on the tape after placement to ensure the adhesive makes good contact with both surfaces.
4. Curing Time: While the tape provides immediate adhesion, it reaches its full bond strength over 24 hours.

3M Attachment Tape is a high-quality solution for automotive bonding, offering excellent durability, flexibility, and resistance to the elements. It is a practical and reliable choice for both professional automotive technicians and DIY enthusiasts.
