Applications for 3M™ VHB™ tapes

Did you know that without adhesive technology there would be no waterproof smartphones?

3M VHB tapes are used in various markets such as, for example, rail and commercial vehicles, electronics, commercial signage, windows and doors as well as household appliances and in the construction, aviation and furniture industries. The constantly evolving product range includes 3M VHB adhesive tapes for bonding and sealing a variety of materials.

A major advantage of 3M VHB adhesive tapes over foam adhesive tapes is their visco-elasticity and thus their ability to absorb energy and reduce tension. Unlike foam tapes, 3M VHB tapes can be stretched up to 50% of their thickness without tearing or peeling off. Due to the unique product properties, the adhesive tapes provide many advantages for your production process.
