Description
This premium high-performance acrylic foam tape is a versatile, double-sided bonding solution designed for demanding industrial, automotive and construction applications. Its grey, closed-cell acrylic foam core combines excellent strength with long-term reliability, providing a clean and efficient alternative to screws, rivets and liquid adhesives.
Engineered for quick bonding, the tape features a textured surface adhesive that delivers strong initial tack and secure adhesion to a wide range of substrates, including metals, plastics and painted surfaces. Available in a choice of coil widths, it is ideal for permanent or semi-permanent fixing, mounting and gap-filling where a discreet, durable bond is required.
Product Features
- Grey high-performance acrylic foam core for strong, long-lasting bonds.
- Textured surface adhesive for rapid initial grab and secure adhesion.
- Available coil widths: 12 mm, 19 mm and 25 mm to suit different bonding areas.
- Standard coil thickness of 1.1 mm, providing cushioning and gap-filling capability.
- Supplied in 33 m coil length for extended use and reduced changeovers.
- Double-sided construction for clean, concealed fixing without visible fasteners.
- Suitable for bonding metals, plastics, painted surfaces and other smooth substrates.
Key Features and Benefits
- Quick bonding performance reduces assembly time and increases productivity on production lines and installations.
- High shear and peel strength provide a durable, vibration-resistant bond for long-term applications.
- Foam core accommodates surface irregularities, helping to distribute stress and improve overall joint performance.
- Clean, dry application with no curing time or mixing required, minimising mess and downtime.
- Thin yet resilient profile offers a neat finish while providing cushioning between bonded components.
- Discreet grey colour helps the tape blend into many industrial and automotive assemblies.

Applications and Ideal Uses
This acrylic foam tape is suitable for a wide range of permanent and semi-permanent bonding tasks where a strong, clean and reliable adhesive solution is required.
- Mounting trims, badges and light fittings in automotive and transport applications.
- Fixing panels, profiles and signage in construction, shopfitting and display work.
- Bonding metal, plastic and painted components in general fabrication and assembly.
- Securing brackets, channels and housings in electrical and HVAC installations.
- Replacing mechanical fixings where a concealed, vibration-damping joint is preferred.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can this acrylic foam tape replace mechanical fixings such as screws or rivets?
Yes, in many applications this high-performance acrylic foam tape can replace traditional mechanical fixings, providing a strong, permanent bond with the added benefits of vibration damping and a cleaner appearance. However, very heavy loads or safety-critical joints should always be assessed by an engineer before relying solely on tape.
What surfaces can this tape be used on?
The tape is designed for smooth, clean surfaces such as metals, many plastics, painted finishes and powder-coated substrates. For best results, surfaces should be dry, free from dust, oil and grease, and cleaned with a suitable surface cleaner before application.
How should I choose the correct coil width for my application?
Select the coil width to match the bonding area and load requirements. Narrower widths such as 12 mm are suitable for smaller components and trims, while wider options like 19 mm and 25 mm provide a larger contact area and higher load-bearing capability for panels, profiles and larger fittings.
