You should choose 
VHB™ Tapes if you’re looking for a strong, clean, and efficient alternative to traditional mechanical fastening methods like screws, rivets, or welds.
Offers high-strength bonding to a variety of surfaces including metal, glass, plastic, and composites.
Performs exceptionally even in demanding applications like automotive, electronics, and aerospace.
Eliminates the need for screws, bolts, rivets, and welds.
Results in cleaner aesthetics with no visible fasteners or surface damage.
Maintains the integrity of materials – no holes, no cracks, and no corrosion.
Its viscoelastic properties allow it to stretch and flex without breaking.
Reduces stress and dampens vibrations, increasing durability and performance.
Provides an airtight and watertight seal, protecting against dirt, moisture, and UV exposure.
Suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
Speeds up production – no drilling, screwing, or post-finishing required.
Simple to apply, reducing labour costs and assembly time.
Significantly lighter than mechanical fasteners, contributing to weight reduction.
No need to puncture surfaces, so materials like painted or zinc-coated metals stay protected and intact.
Enables sleek, smooth, and hidden bonds, giving you more creative freedom.
Can be custom-cut to fit precise shapes and applications.
Unlike screws and rivets that concentrate stress at single points, VHB tape distributes stress evenly across the bond line for better performance.
Trusted by manufacturers around the world for over 40 years.
Extensively tested and reliable in harsh conditions, including automotive crash simulations and extreme temperatures.
If you’re aiming for aesthetics, durability, performance, and efficiency, 3M™ VHB™ Tapes are a modern, high-tech solution that outperforms traditional fastening in many critical areas.
