How to use the vhb tape？

For 3m VHB tapes like any adhesive it is very important that the surface is clean in order to achieve a good bond.

Step 1: Surface cleaning

Cleaning the substrate surface helps any adhesive or tape achieve a better bond.

Getting the surface right up front can save time and trouble later.

Step 2: Tape Application By Hand

Start vhb tape at the edge of the surface and lay it down, applying constant pressure as you go.

Step 3: Using Final Pressure

Using pressure to the applied tape facilitates optimal wet-out onto the substrate.

A lot of pressure required to achieve what is typically known as wet-out or acceptable contact.

For example, It is achieved by the application of greater than 15 psi at the tape bond line.
