Highlights
  • Delivers fast and easy-to-use permanent bonding
  • Pressure-sensitive adhesive bonds on contact to provide immediate handling strength
  • Provides high adhesion strength and long-term durability both indoors and outdoors
  • Can replace liquid adhesives or mechanical fasteners like rivets, welds, and screws
  • Creates a permanent seal against environmental conditions while resisting hot, cold, and cycling temperatures, UV light, moisture, and solvents
  • Virtually invisible fastening helps keep surfaces smooth
  • Viscoelastic foam provides dynamic stress absorption to reduce vibration and impact stress

3M™ VHB™ Tape LSE Series is a low surface energy tape that offers enhanced performance — without primer on many substrates — on difficult-to-bond surfaces. Designed for use in both indoor and outdoor applications, this double-sided foam tape can function as an alternative to many types of mechanical fasteners while providing long-term durability. Dream, design, and deliver with 3M™ VHB™ Tape LSE Series.

Low surface energy surfaces can be difficult to attach or bond to, but thanks to an ideal combination of strength, conformability, and adhesion, 3M™ VHB™ Tape LSE Series helps make cutting-edge designs a reality. A fast and easy-to-use permanent bonding method helps provide high strength and offers design flexibility with its viscoelasticity, making this acrylic foam tape an ideal fit for multi-material bonding. For added design flexibility, this very high bond tape delivers a virtually-invisible fastening that helps keep surfaces smooth. Leave behind your adhesive limitations and start using 3M™ VHB™ Tape LSE Series.

Suggested applications
  • An ideal choice when a strong bond is needed for substrates such as Polypropylene (PP); Thermoplastic Olefins (TPO); Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPE); glass-filled plastics; glass and carbon reinforced composites; gel-coated composites; and most polyester paints
  • Can eliminate drilling, grinding, refinishing, screwing, welding, clean-up, and other tasks related to conventional fasteners
