3M 5952 VHB Tape 45 mil

This black double-coated acrylic foam tape comes on a 36 yard roll with a 3 inch core. It bonds a wide range of surfaces including powder coated paints and replaces mechanical fasteners in interior and exterior applications. The viscoelastic foam absorbs energy and relaxes stress for durable bonds.

Suitable uses and limits

Ideal for installers who need permanent mounting without drilling or welding on metal, glass or painted substrates. Not suited for buyers who require a removable adhesive, a clear tape line, or a product rated for structural loads beyond the 4 square inches per pound guideline.

45 mil foam thickness

The 45 mil closed-cell acrylic foam carrier provides the conformability and stress relaxation that define the 5952 series performance. This thickness determines gap filling ability and load distribution for each bonding job.

Questions about this item

What surface area of 5952 VHB tape is needed to hold a 1 lb object?

Four square inches of 5952 VHB tape are recommended for every 1 pound of load; rough surfaces may require additional tape area.

Can this 45 mil acrylic foam tape bond to older powder-coated metal parts?

The modified acrylic adhesive on both sides of the conformable foam core provides adhesion to most powder-coated paints and a broad range of substrates.

How can I confirm the 5952 VHB tape is seated correctly after application?

Firm, even pressure across the full bond line ensures the viscoelastic foam achieves full wet-out; the red film release liner removes cleanly when the tape is properly positioned.
