3M™ Acrylic Foam Tape FT5425 is designed for exterior and interior automotive part attachment. It is a 2.5 mm thick, white, double-coated acrylic foam tape used in a variety of automotive applications where bonding surface contours are poorly matched and a thick foam is required. It is offering very good adhesion performance, high flexibility, and strong shear and peel strength. The tape provides reliable holding power to automotive paints and substrates and helps accommodate shrinkage and elongation of plastic parts caused by temperature changes. Its combination of adhesive strength, creep resistance, and stress relaxation properties makes it suitable for both small components and larger exterior trim parts.
3M™ Acrylic Foam Tape FT5425 is a 2.5 mm thick, white, double-coated acrylic foam tape designed for a variety of automotive applications where bonding surface contours are poorly matched and a thicker foam is required. It is suitable for the attachment of exterior and interior automotive parts and provides very good adhesion performance to automotive paints and substrates, along with high shear and peel strength. The tape is engineered to deliver reliable final adhesion and holding power while meeting OEM requirements for temperature, weather, and solvent resistance.Thanks to its stress relaxation properties, 3M™ Acrylic Foam Tape FT5425 can help follow the shrinkage and elongation of plastic components caused by temperature changes. This supports durable bond performance in demanding automotive environments where bonded parts may experience dimensional movement over time. The foam hardness and thickness of the tape enable the attachment of parts that require high adhesive strength, creep resistance, and the ability to compensate for less-matched surface contours. At the same time, 3M™ Acrylic Foam Tape FT5425 can also support the attachment of relatively large exterior trim parts that require good stress relaxation properties. For specific applications, feasibility should be reviewed together with an application engineer.
