Acrylic foam tapes that perform strongly
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.
Exemplary applications in various industries
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® ACXplus employs a special acrylic adhesive system that combines both effects in an outstanding way.
Inner core strength
Stress dissipation
- 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:
