VHB tape – technical specification
The most popular VHB tapes are from the manufacturer 3M, which offers many different models of these self-adhesive tapes. What are the characteristics of VHB products and what are they best suited for?
Strong VHB adhesive tape – applications
VHB tape is most often used for permanent bonding of elements in the industrial or construction sectors. These tapes have many advantages. They are characterized by:
- enormous mechanical strength,
- resistance to external factors (including UV rays),
- resistance to large temperature changes,
- resistance to solvents.
VHB tapes have a very large adhesion surface to the bonded elements. In addition, they show great ability to dampen vibrations, insulate, and seal. They are also used for bonding metal to glass – this is possible due to the compensation of thermal stresses. VHB tapes are often used for bonding:
- wood,
- metals,
- glass,
- composites,
- plastics.
VHB adhesive tapes are based on strong acrylic adhesive and have a homogeneous structure, which ensures strong and durable bonding of even completely different surfaces, such as metal to wood or plastic to powder-coated elements. Using these strong, double-sided tapes is easy and quick. It is also an extremely functional solution with many different applications.

VHB Tapes - characteristics
There are different VHB tapes. We distinguish between basic and transparent tapes.Basic VHB tapes have high adhesive strength (including dynamic loads).They also have the ability to permanently bond uneven surfaces. In turn,transparent VHB tapes are excellent for bonding glass to other surfaces.Their enormous advantage is transparency, which gives an aesthetic effect, especially when bonding transparent surfaces (such as two glass surfaces or transparent plastics).
Purpose of VHB tapes
Self-adhesive tapes of this type can be classified according to their intended use. At Dalpo, you can buy VHB tapes:
- for bonding transparent plastics (PPMA),
- for bonding high-energy surfaces (metals),
- for bonding low-energy surfaces,
- for powder-coated surfaces.
Double-sidedVHB tapesare used in many different industries. They are often used in the automotive industry, carpentry, construction industry, or for bonding small electronic components. Below is a table that will help everyone match the right tape to their specific needs.
