tesa HAF® 8471
30µm amber reactive structural bonding film
Product Features- Extremely high performance, even on small bonding areas and thin design gaps
- Reliable and ageing-resistant bonds
- Very low oozing ratio
Product description
tesa HAF® 8471 is a reactive heat activated structural bonding film based on phenolic resin and nitrile rubber. This amber double sided tape has no backing. It is protected by a strong paper liner.
It is activated by heat and pressure applied during the assembly process.
It is activated by heat and pressure applied during the assembly process.

Additional Info
Technical recommendations:
tesa HAF® is not self adhesive. It is activated by heat and pressure over a certain interval. The following values are recommendations for bond line parameters to start with.
1. Pre-lamination:
During pre-lamination, the adhesive tape is laminated onto the first substrate. This step does not affect the shelf life time of the adhesive tape. Pre-laminated components can be stored over the same period of time as the adhesive tape.
setting:
Remove the liner from tape after pre-lamination step. Place the pre-laminated part onto the second substrate. Apply sufficient temperature while applying pressure for the bonding time to reach sufficient bonding strength.
setting:
¹ ‘Pre-lamination’ and ‘Bonding’ temperature refer to the data that is measured in the bond line.
² ‘Pre-lamination’ and ‘Bonding’ pressure refer to the force that is transformed from jig surface directly to the bonding area.
Bonding strength values were obtained under standard laboratory conditions. (Material: etched aluminum test specimen / bonding conditions: temperature = 180 °C; pressure = 10 bar; time = 7 sec).
To reach maximum bonding strength surfaces should be clean and dry. Storage conditions according to tesa HAF® shelf life concept.
