3M VHB TAPES

Our LED Light Strip use 3M VHB Adhesive Transfer Tape F9473PC
Temp Resistance Lower (deg F) -40 Degree Fahrenheit
Temp Resistance  Upper (deg F) 500 Degree Fahrenheit

Our Cable Mounts also use 3M VHB Adhesive Tape 5952

3M VHB TAPES are high-strength bonding tapes and a proven alternative to screws, rivets, welds and other mechanical fasteners.

Unlike screws or rivets which join materials at a single point, high-strength bonding tape permanently adheres one substrate to another while spreading the stress load across the entire length of the joint. Once materials are joined with 3M VHB TAPE a virtually indestructible weld is created.
