Seria 3M™ VHB™ Seria RP

3M VHB RP Series tapes

Fixing tape without primer for low and medium surface energy automotive surfaces.

Tested for excellent adhesion on TPO and other low surface energy substrates, the 3M VHB PX50xx series acrylic foam tape is designed to attach exterior automotive trim without the additional time and cost of primers or adhesion enhancers. It has a polyethylene backing and a durable acrylic foam core with the same adhesive on both sides. The adhesive is specially formulated for high adhesion to LSE and MSE surfaces. The viscoelastic foam core adapts well even to complex geometries, is designed for stress relaxation under heavy loads and maintains the aesthetics of the bond line under normal loads. The inconspicuous dark grey colour of the 3M VHB PX50xx series tape helps to ensure a high level of consumer satisfaction. The red 3M VHB branded backing is silicone-coated on both sides for easy release of one part and efficient application of the tape.
