3M 7000123402 Vhb Tape 4955 White 1 in X 36 Yd 80 Mil

Product Description

The 3M 7000123402 is a white, double-sided, pressure-sensitive acrylic foam tape sold under the VHB Tape 4955 product line. The tape features a closed-cell acrylic foam core with a PET film liner and measures 80 mil thick. It is designed to bond high surface energy substrates including metals, glass, and certain plastics. The closed-cell foam construction delivers cushioning, vibration damping, and impact resistance in addition to a strong structural bond. It comes in a 1-inch-wide by 36-yard roll, making it suitable for continuous runs on fabrication or assembly work. Installation does not require fasteners, rivets, or liquid adhesives, which simplifies workflows in manufacturing, glazing, and panel attachment applications.

VHB Tape 4955 is used across commercial and industrial applications where a permanent, load-bearing bond is needed without mechanical fasteners. Typical applications include attaching panels, trim, signage, and architectural elements to metal or glass substrates. The 80 mil thickness provides a conformable bond layer that also serves as a spacer or gasket in tight assemblies. Trade professionals in glazing, sheet metal fabrication, HVAC panel assembly, and general construction regularly use this tape as a structural adhesive alternative.

Key Features

• 80 mil closed-cell acrylic foam core for conformability and gap-filling
• Double-sided, pressure-sensitive design — no heat or cure time required
• PET film liner for clean, controlled application
• Bonds high surface energy substrates including metals and glass
• Provides cushioning, vibration damping, and impact resistance
• 1-inch width by 36-yard length per roll

Compatibility

Designed for bonding high surface energy substrates such as metals, glass, and compatible rigid plastics in panel attachment, signage, and architectural assembly applications.

Installation Notes

Surface preparation is critical for maximum bond strength — clean and dry the substrate thoroughly before applying the tape. Apply firm, even pressure across the full tape surface to initiate adhesion; a roller is recommended for consistent contact. Avoid flexing or loading the bond immediately after application, as VHB tapes require a dwell period to reach full strength. Removal of cured VHB tape typically requires mechanical cutting tools and may damage the substrate surface.
