Acrylic foam tapes
that perform strongly

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.

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.

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

Our wide product range fulfills all application requirements. For example, we offer our products in different thicknesses to fulfill design gap requirements or compensate for rough and uneven surfaces.

Our acrylic foam tapes are used in many markets, such as appliances, electronics, automtotive, and building components.

The bonding of substrates in electronic devices can be very challenging as the components are characterized by complex geometries and design gaps often require low thickness adhesive solutions. We have you covered with our high-performance acrylic foam tapes specifically developed for the consumer electronics industry.
