3M™ Damping Foil Tape 2552 is constructed of a dead soft, aluminum foil constraining layer and coated with a pressure-sensitive, viscoelastic, acrylic polymer adhesive. This unique construction provides the ability to control resonant vibrations in a variety of applications and across a broad spectrum of temperatures.
3M™ Damping Foil Tape 2552 is an aluminum foil backed, anti-vibration tape. It is designed to reduce structure-borne noise and fatigue in metal, composite panels and support structures. With a viscoelastic, acrylic polymer adhesive this tape is easy to apply and it adheres well to metal. It can achieve effective damping with as little as 20% surface coverage. This durable tape will resist moisture, weather, UV degradation and flame. It is a long aging tape designed to specifically perform in a wide variety of temperatures (-25 °F/32 °C to 175 °F/180 °C) with peak damping from 32 °F/0 °C to 140 °F/60 °C. The linered construction provides the ability to die cut this product. 3M™ Damping Foil Tape 2552 meets the requirements of F.A.R. 25.853(a) and can pass ASTM E-162 and ASTM-E 662 for flammability and smoke generation.
