3M VHB Tape GPH-160GF is a double-sided tape comprised of a multi-purpose acrylic adhesive with a conformable, foam core, delivering a total thickness of 62 mil (1.6 mm) when applied. It is specifically designed to perform in high-temperature applications and creates a long-lasting, high-strength bond prior to powder coating and liquid paint processes. The ability to bond before powder coating and liquid paint processes helps simplify and reduce pre-paint steps, resulting in valuable time and cost savings. It joins dissimilar and thin materials enabling the tape to excel across various industries, including specialty vehicles, appliances, signage, construction, general industrial, and more.
Engineered to be strong, it can replace rivets, welds, and screws, enabling faster production times by removing the need for drilling, welding, grinding, and project cleanup. Offering seamless joining, this easy-to-use bonding method keeps surfaces smooth and provides an excellent balance of strength, viscoelasticity, conformability, and adhesion. The advanced closed-cell acrylic foam technology provides secure bonding that protects against water and seals tightly for long-term durability. The film liner is built to offer consistency for a smooth and easy release. It performs in applications for short-term use (up to four hours) at a temperature up to 450 °F (230 °C) or in long-term use (up to one week) withstanding 300 °F (149 °C).
These attributes make 3M VHB Tape GPH-160GF a reliable choice for bonding and sealing applications on a range of high surface energy (HSE) and medium surface energy (MSE) substrates, such as metals, plastics, and some painted materials. Discover the many ways to apply the powerful bonding potential of 3M VHB Tape GPH-160GF.
