Box Packaging Inc VHB494912R Double Sided Foam Tape

Product Description

The BOX PACKAGING INC VHB494912R is a double-sided acrylic foam tape designed for high-strength bonding in both interior and exterior applications. The tape measures 0.5 inches wide by 5 yards long with a 45 mil thickness and features a black acrylic foam core with acrylic adhesive on both sides. It is engineered to replace mechanical fasteners such as rivets, bolts, screws, spot welds, and liquid adhesives in many situations. The firm acrylic adhesive system delivers excellent long-term holding power with peel adhesion and tensile strength significantly above standard pressure-sensitive tape products. Installers in HVAC, electrical, and general construction trades use this tape where permanent, load-bearing bonds are required.

This tape is suited for residential and commercial applications where a durable, permanent bond is needed on rigid or semi-rigid substrates. It performs reliably across a wide temperature range from -40 degrees F to 200 degrees F and resists solvents, moisture, and UV light. The clear polyester liner protects the adhesive surface until application. Typical use cases include panel bonding, sign mounting, trim attachment, gasket sealing, and structural glazing in both indoor and outdoor environments.

Key Features

• Double-sided acrylic adhesive bonds to both surfaces without mechanical fasteners
• 45 mil black acrylic foam core provides conformability and gap-filling on uneven surfaces
• Temperature resistance from -40 degrees F to 200 degrees F
• Resistant to moisture, solvents, and UV light for long-term exterior durability
• Clear polyester liner for clean, controlled application
• UL746C listed

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose double-sided foam mounting tape suitable for bonding rigid substrates in HVAC panel assembly, electrical enclosure mounting, and structural attachment applications where mechanical fasteners are impractical.

Installation Notes

Surface preparation is critical - clean and dry the bonding surface thoroughly before application to achieve full adhesive contact. Apply firm, even pressure across the tape length to activate the acrylic adhesive bond. Allow adequate dwell time before loading the joint, as acrylic foam tape bonds strengthen over the first 24 to 72 hours. Follow applicable building and mechanical codes when using tape bonding in structural or load-bearing assemblies.
