3M 7000123538 Vhb Foam Tape 62 Mil 0.75 in X 36 Yd Gray

Product Description

The 3M 7000123538 is a conformable, double-sided, closed-cell acrylic foam tape designed for strong, permanent bonding without mechanical fasteners. Known commercially as VHB Tape 4956, this gray roll measures 0.75 inches wide by 36 yards long and carries a 62 mil thickness profile. The pressure-sensitive adhesive bonds to high and medium surface energy substrates including metals, glass, and many plastics. The tape ships with a paper liner for handling convenience and is engineered to provide cushioning, vibration damping, and impact resistance in demanding assemblies. Plasticizer resistance makes it suitable for use with PVC and similar materials.

VHB Tape 4956 is used across a wide range of trade and industrial applications where a clean, permanent bond is required without visible fasteners or welding. Typical applications include panel attachment, trim bonding, sign mounting, HVAC cabinet assembly, and sealing or mounting on painted metal, aluminum, and composite surfaces. The 62 mil foam core allows the tape to conform to slightly uneven or curved surfaces, maintaining consistent contact across the bond area.

Key Features

• 62 mil closed-cell acrylic foam construction for conformability and gap-filling
• Double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive bonds without mechanical fasteners
• Bonds to high and medium surface energy substrates including metals and many plastics
• Provides cushioning, vibration damping, and impact resistance
• Plasticizer resistant for use with PVC and plasticizer-containing materials
• UL Listed under UL 746C

Compatibility

Designed for bonding high and medium surface energy substrates. Suitable for metal, glass, and compatible plastic surfaces in panel, trim, and mounting assemblies where a conformable, high-strength foam tape is required.

Installation Notes

Surface preparation is critical for full adhesive performance — clean and degrease all bonding surfaces before application. Apply firm pressure across the full tape length to ensure complete contact with both substrates. Full bond strength develops over time after initial application; avoid stressing the joint immediately. No special tools are required, but a roller or squeegee is recommended for consistent pressure during installation.
