Acrylic foam tapes
that perform strongly

Q: What are acrylic foam tapes?

Acrylic foam tapes are high-performance bonding tapes designed to create durable, long-lasting bonds in demanding industrial applications. Their acrylic foam core helps distribute stress across the bonded joint while providing strong adhesion to a variety of materials.

Q: What applications are acrylic foam double sided tape products suitable for?

Acrylic foam double sided tape is commonly used for permanent mounting and bonding applications in industries such as automotive, transportation, and manufacturing. It is suitable for attaching trims, decorative elements, panels, and other components where a strong, reliable bond is required.

Q: What are the benefits of acrylic foam tape?

Acrylic foam tape offers high bonding performance while helping compensate for thermal expansion and different material movements. It also provides excellent conformability to irregular surfaces, making it suitable for demanding applications that require durable and reliable adhesion.

Q: How does acrylic foam tape perform in demanding environments?

Acrylic foam tape is designed to withstand challenging environmental conditions. Depending on the product, it offers resistance to temperature changes, humidity, UV exposure, and other environmental influences, helping maintain long-term bonding performance.

Q: Why choose acrylic foam tapes instead of mechanical fasteners?

Acrylic foam tapes can replace traditional mechanical fastening methods in many applications by creating a clean, invisible bond. They help distribute stresses more evenly across the bonded surface while supporting lightweight designs and reducing the need for screws, rivets, or welds.

Quick overview

Acrylic foam tapes deliver strong, permanent bonds for industrial bonding and mounting across industries, including automotive, electronics, appliances, and building components.
They can replace mechanical fasteners and liquid adhesives, enabling faster assembly, greater design flexibility, and improved aesthetics without drilling or visible fasteners.
Their viscoelastic properties help dissipate mechanical stress, compensate for thermal elongation, and maintain consistent performance over time, including in outdoor conditions.
Key benefits include durable bonding, impact resistance, permanent sealing, waterproofing, and protection against humidity, dust, and chemicals

Applications

Acrylic foam tapes with strong performance

Bonding components or substrates can be very challenging. Our acrylic foam tape assortment has been developed over the years to meet the extreme demands of industrial applications. Today, our acrylic foam tapes’ strong bonding capabilities are relied upon by manufacturers worldwide.

Acrylic foam tapes are widely used in many different industries including the automotive, building components, appliances, and electronics sectors. In manufacturing, acrylic foam tapes can replace mechanical fasteners and liquid adhesives. As there is no need to drill into material or use screws, nuts, or bolts, faster assembly time can be realized, potentially at a lower cost and without damaging the materials used. Overall, acrylic foam tapes offer greater design flexibility and, with no raised fastener heads, improved aesthetics.

Features

Key features of our acrylic foam tape series

To achieve their strong bonding performance, our acrylic foam tapes rely on our own innovative technologies and special acrylic adhesive systems. The high performance of our acrylic foam tapes is based on a special feature: viscoelasticity.

Viscoelasticity describes a material performance which is defined by both elastic and viscous characteristics. The elastic restoring forces provide inner strength while the viscous part of the material behavior leads to relaxation of mechanical stresses. tesa® ACX^plus employs a special acrylic adhesive system that combines both effects in an outstanding way.

Elastic and viscous characteristics provide the strength for a permanent bond
Constant product features over time even in outdoor conditions
Acrylic foam tapes can compensate static loads over the entire bond's duration of the product life cycle

Our acrylic foam tapes compensate for thermal elongation of different materials
Dynamic stresses are optimally dissipated for a secure bond

Together with the viscoelastic nature of acrylic foams, the tapes provide several advantages:

Durable permanent bonds

Impact resistance

Permanent sealing, e.g. against humidity, dust, or chemicals

Waterproofing
