Product description
tesa® ACXplus 7042 is a double-sided acrylic foam tape, available in gray or white. It consists of a high performance acrylic system, and is identified by its bonding power, stress dissipation and its temperature resistance.
Due to the product’s unique formulation, this double-sided acrylic foam tape combines high adhesion levels with the ability to absorb and dissipate high dynamic loads. The viscoelastic core of this product is able to compensate for thermal elongations of bonded parts.
tesa® ACXplus 7042 performs well on “hard-to-bond-materials” such as powder coatings or plastic materials. Even in combinations of such materials, this product provides advanced safety due to its innovative product design. This product is especially designed to allow seamless bonding of decorative elements. The gray or white color options adapt very well to metal and plastic surfaces and avoid gleaming of translucent and decorative elements.
Main applications
The tesa® ACXplus product family is suitable for a wide range of constructive bonding applications. To ensure the highest performance possible, our aim is to fully understand the application (including the substrates involved) in order to provide the right product recommendation. Example mounting applications include but are not limited to:
- Decorative panels (e.g. refrigerator glass doors)
- Decorative elements (e.g. covers of dishwashers, muntin bars on windows)
- Glass-to-glass or glass-to-metal applications (e.g. partition walls or glass doors)
- Furniture mounting
- Flush Design
