tesa® ACXplus 77608

0.8 mm double-sided acrylic foam tape for mounting of automotive exterior parts

Product description

tesa® ACXplus 77608 is a 0.8 mm double-sided acrylic foam tape with an unique double layer product design, coated with low surface energy (LSE) adhesive on the covered side. Its high-performance LSE adhesive has excellent initial adhesive properties when it comes to different types of OEM clear coats and can reach near ultimate performance right after the application. Even at temperatures down to 5°C, tesa® ACXplus 77608 shows excellent bonding strength on clear coat.

tesa® ACXplus 77608 is specially recommended for mounting of primer-treated attachment parts including ribbed surfaces to difficult to bond clear coats. Thanks to its viscoelastic acrylic foam core, tesa® ACXplus 77608 has the ability to absorb and dissipate dynamic and static loads.
Also available in thicknesses of 1.1 mm and 1.5 mm.
