3M Dual Lock SJ3551 Reclosable Fastener

This 3M Dual Lock SJ3551 is a black reclosable fastener featuring 400 stems per square inch on a polypropylene carrier with acrylic adhesive. It is designed for makers and technicians who need a strong, reusable attachment method that allows for repeated access or repositioning of panels, signs, or components. The fastener engages with a thickness of .23 inches and offers a closure life of 1000 cycles, providing 5X the closure strength of standard hook-and-loop alternatives.

Compatible Stem Densities and Substrates

Type 400 fasteners mate with type 170, 250, or 400 counterparts, with combined stem density determining the final closure strength. The acrylic adhesive bonds effectively to metals, glass, and medium-to-high surface energy plastics and paints, replacing screws, rivets, or snaps in many applications. It will not adhere reliably to low surface energy materials such as polyethylene or polypropylene substrates without additional surface preparation.

Installation Notes and Common Issues

The roll measures 3/4 in. by 10 ft. and applies by pressing the adhesive side onto a clean, dry surface; no tools are required. Ensure both mating faces are Type 400, 250, or 170 to achieve a secure lock. A frequent problem is premature adhesive failure caused by installing on dusty, oily, or low-energy surfaces without proper cleaning or priming.

Questions about this item

Should I choose Type 400 or a lower stem density like 170 or 250 for my application?

Type 400 provides 400 stems per square inch and mates with 170, 250, or 400; the higher the combined stem count, the stronger the closure, so select based on the holding power you need.

What does the 0.23 inch engaged thickness mean when the fastener is closed?

When two pieces interlock, the total bonded stack measures 0.23 inches thick, so allow that gap in your panel or door design.

Does the acrylic adhesive on the polypropylene carrier bond to low-energy plastics?

The adhesive is designed for metals, glass, and medium-to-high surface energy plastics and paint; it is not recommended for low-energy plastics such as polyethylene or polypropylene substrates.
