3M 7000028997 Vhb Foam Tape 0.75in X 36yd 45 Mil Black

Product Description

The 3M 7000028997 is a double-sided, pressure-sensitive, closed-cell acrylic foam tape designed for demanding bonding applications. At 45 mil total thickness, this black tape conforms well to irregular and curved surfaces while delivering a strong, permanent bond. It features a PE film liner for clean handling during application. Trade professionals use it for structural bonding, vibration damping, cushioning, and impact resistance in both interior and exterior assemblies. The roll measures 0.75 inches wide by 36 yards long, making it well-suited for continuous runs and high-volume installations.

This tape is used across commercial and industrial applications where mechanical fasteners are impractical or undesirable. It bonds effectively to high, medium, and medium-low surface energy substrates including powder-coated metals, painted surfaces, and many plastics. Typical install scenarios include panel mounting, sign assembly, glazing, HVAC component bonding, and general fabrication work. It is commonly used by sheet metal mechanics, glazing contractors, signage installers, and general trade professionals.

Key Features

• Double-sided, closed-cell acrylic foam construction provides a permanent structural bond
• Conforms to irregular and curved surfaces for reliable contact on complex geometries
• Bonds high, medium, and medium-low surface energy substrates
• Provides cushioning, vibration damping, and impact resistance in assembled joints
• PE film liner supports clean, controlled application
• UL Listed under 746C for use with polymeric materials

Compatibility

Designed for bonding to high, medium, and medium-low surface energy substrates including metals, painted surfaces, and select plastics in commercial and industrial assembly applications.

Installation Notes

Surface preparation is critical — clean bonding surfaces with an appropriate solvent to remove oils, dust, and contaminants before applying tape. Apply firm, even pressure across the full bond area to ensure full contact and adhesion activation. Avoid stretching the tape during application, as this can reduce long-term bond strength. Installation should follow the substrate manufacturer guidelines and any applicable industry standards for the assembly type.
