3M™ VHB™ Tape 5930P is a black, 0.032 in (0.8 mm) thin tape with a modified acrylic adhesive and conformable foam core. This tape offers a fast, easy-to-use permanent bonding method with high strength and long-term durability that make it an ideal replacement for mechanical fasteners like rivets, welding, and screws, as well as liquid adhesives.
The 3M™ VHB™ Tape 5930P provides design flexibility with its viscoelasticity and powerful ability to bond a variety of surfaces. Its virtually invisible fastening keeps surfaces smooth and enhancing the appearance of finished goods.
- Designed for Powder-Coated Surfaces: Specially engineered with a modified acrylic adhesive that delivers exceptional bonding performance on painted, powder coated and irregular surfaces with minimal surface preparation.
- 0.8 mm Very Conformable Acrylic Foam Core: The 0.8 mm (32 mil) foam core easily conforms to uneven surfaces and gaps while providing outstanding strength and stress distribution.
- Strong Permanent Bond: Creates a durable, long-lasting bond that replaces rivets, screws, spot welds and liquid adhesives in many industrial assembly applications.
- Immediate Handling Strength: Pressure sensitive adhesive bonds instantly upon application without requiring curing time, helping increase production speed.
- Excellent Gap Filling Capability: The closed cell acrylic foam fills surface irregularities while creating a strong bond and permanent environmental seal.
- High Shear Strength & Durability: Offers excellent holding power, vibration resistance, fatigue resistance and long term structural performance in demanding environments.
- Reliable Indoor & Outdoor Performance: Resistant to UV exposure, moisture, chemicals, weathering and temperature fluctuations for dependable long-term performance.
- Wide Material Compatibility: Bonds effectively to stainless steel, aluminum, galvanized steel, glass, acrylic, polycarbonate, ABS, composites, painted metals, powder-coated surfaces and many plastics.
- Polycoated Kraft Paper Liner: Provides excellent dimensional stability, making the tape ideal for die cutting, kiss cutting, automated converting and high volume manufacturing.
- High Temperature Resistance: Performs continuously at temperatures up to 93°C (200°F) and can withstand short term exposure up to 149°C (300°F).
- Supports Lightweight Product Design: Enables manufacturers to replace bulky mechanical fasteners with thinner, lighter and more aesthetically pleasing assemblies.
- Versatile Industrial Solution: Widely used across appliance manufacturing, electronics, transportation, construction, signage, metal fabrication and general industrial applications.
