High Bond Double-Sided Acrylic Foam Tape [40 mil] (XHB-40) - 1 in. x 1 in. Clear - 1250 Pieces - Strong Adhesive for Home, Office & DIY Projects

FindTape XHB-40 High Bond Double-Sided Acrylic Foam Tape is a very high performance, clear 40 mil thick acrylic foam tape that meets a variety of application needs. This permanent tape has an extremely strong bond which is superior to screws, rivets, and fasteners. FindTape XHB-40 is carried on a red, release coated polyethylene liner that is easy to remove for quick placement.FindTape XHB-40 will bond to most surfaces including many plastics, composites, sealed woods, and metals; however thorough evaluation is recommended when bonding to low energy surface materials such as polyethylene, polypropylene, silicones, and Teflon. For even better adhesion on substrates including glass and glass-like materials; copper and copper-containing metals; and plastics or rubber that contain components that migrate (e.g. plasticizers) you will want to prepare the surface with an adhesion promoter or primer such as the 3M Scotch 4298 Adhesion PromoterAfter removing the release liner, be careful not to contaminate the acrylic adhesive (with skin oils or other substances) and try to immediately bond the tape to the surface without entrapping air between the tape and the surface it is being applied to. The tape will not feel as tacky to the touch like a tape coated with a rubber adhesive, e.g. duct tape, and more. It is recommended to try to provide pressure during this time (e.g. clamps, tape over it, and more.) if you can so that the adhesive bond can form correctly. FindTape XHB-40 will need approximately 1 to 24 hours of contact with both surfaces to reach maximum adhesion. Country of Origin: United States.
