The challenge of joining a variety of materials

Constructive and permanent bonding can be a challenge in almost every industry. Often different materials need to be bonded - for example aluminum, steel, glass, fiber composites, plastics, painted or powder-coated surfaces. In today's design concepts, high-tech materials need to be bonded without affecting their special structures and properties.

For powerful, long-lasting bonds, even on materials with different surface characteristics.

Traditional mechanical fasteners like screws, rivets, and welds may provide insufficient bonds. Over time, they can come loose or start to rattle, and they can damage the joined materials. To overcome this challenge, our high performance acrylic foam tapes provide reliable solutions for permanent bonding applications, optimizing your manufacturing processes, and helping you to offer competitive products to the market.

Our product assortment: key features and application benefits

01gray and white acrylic core tape

The tesa® ACX^plus 704x acrylic core tape is available in gray and white, and is recommended for indoor applications. Both color options adapt very well to metal and plastic surfaces and avoid reflections on translucent and decorative elements.

05double-sided acrylic core tape

tesa® flameXtinct 4506x is a double-sided acrylic core tape with proven flame retardent characteristics. The white product is halogen-free and UL94 and FMVSS 302 compliant and recommended for indoor and outdoor applications.

06acrylic foam tape

tesa® ACX^plus Multi Purpose (MP) is from our acrylic foam tape family for converters and industrial distributors with converting equipment. The products are recommended for indoor multi-purpose applications and are available in three colors: transparent, gray & black.

07Our primer assortment

Adhesion promoters or primers are surface pre-treatments used to increase the adhesion performance between a self-adhesive tape and a substrate – achieving a more robust and durable bond.

For an optimal bonding performance, we offer:

tesa® 60150 Adhesion Promoter Universal

tesa® 60151 Adhesion Promoter Glass

tesa® 60153 Adhesion Promoter Fast Cure

08Dispensing tools

We also offer dispenser and application tools for our tesa® ACX^plus assortment to make efficient tape processing possible and ensure a quick and precise application.

Mechanical features of our tesa® ACX^plus assortment

The high performance of tesa® ACX^plus 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:

Inner core strength

Elastic and viscous characteristics provide the strength for a permanent bond
Constant product features over time even in outdoor conditions
tesa® ACX^plus can compensate static loads over the entire bond's duration of the product life cycleOur acrylic foam tapes compensate for thermal elongation of different materials
Dynamic stresses are optimally dissipated for a secure bond
