3M™ Single-Coated Foam Tapes will adhere to a variety of substrates, including latex-painted wood, lacquered wood, enameled steel, glass, aluminum, stainless steel, acrylic, ABS, and PVC (non-plasticized) as tape adhesion is typically satisfactory within 20 minutes and continues to build with additional time.
FEATURES
3M™ Vinyl Foam Tapes Series 4700 are a flexible, black, medium-density, closedcell foam with a pressure-sensitive acrylic adhesive on one side. The adhesive is protected by a 0.004 inch (0.1 mm) thick white, silicone treated paper liner which allows for die cutting without having to laminate another liner to the foam.
3M vinyl foam tape series 4500 and 4700 are durable, flexible closed cell vinyls which can help seal out dust, light and moisture when placed under 30% compression. These vinyl tapes offer excellent aging characteristics and will remain flexible when exposed to elevated temperatures and UV light. Application ideas include: dust and moisture seal for appliances, computers, copiers and other electronic and transportation equipment.
