3M™ VHB™ Tape 5930 is a double-sided tape comprised of a multi-purpose modified acrylic adhesive with a conformable, foam core that delivers a total thickness of 32 mil (0.8 mm) when applied and requires no curing time. The advanced closed-cell acrylic technology offers secure bonding that performs on many painted and powder coated surfaces. Engineered to be strong, it can replace rivets, welds, and screws while providing faster production by eliminating the need for drilling, welding, grinding, and project cleanup. Offering seamless joining and minimal surface preparation, this easy-to-use bonding method keeps surfaces smooth and aesthetically pleasing resulting in a professional application on thin, lightweight, and dissimilar materials. It performs in applications for short-term use (up to four hours) at a temperature up to 300 °F (149 °C) or long-term use withstanding up to 200 °F (93 °C). This tape balances strength, viscoelasticity, conformability, and adhesion to various surfaces, such as stainless steel. These attributes make 3M™ VHB™ Tape 5930 a reliable choice to take on a variety of bonding and sealing applications in transportation, appliance, electronics, construction, signage, and general industrial. Discover the many ways to apply the powerful bonding potential of 3M™ VHB™ Tape 5930.

3M™ VHB™ Tape permanently adheres one substrate to another and spreads the stress load across the entire length of the joint
The 5952 family of 3M™ VHB™ Tapes utilizes modified acrylic adhesive on both sides of a very conformable, adhesive foam core. The combination of strength, conformability and adhesion makes this family one of the most capable and well-rounded 3M™ VHB™ Tapes. It is specifically designed for good adhesion to high, medium and lower surface energy plastics and paints, metals and glass. Applications for this tape include bonding and sealing polycarbonate lens over LCD, signage and windows to post-painted control panels.
An Unconventional Foam Tape
We invented 3M™ VHB™ Tapes in 1980 as the first of their kind. These unique tapes combine conformability with a strong, permanent bond. The result is a family of extraordinarily strong tapes that adhere to a broad range of substrates. 3M™ VHB™ Tape is a proven alternative to screws, rivets, welds and other forms of mechanical fasteners. Skyscrapers, cell phones, electronic highway signs, refrigerators, architectural windows and more all rely on this specialty bonding tape for one or more steps in the assembly, mounting, fastening and sealing process. This trusted and reliable tape offers a consistent bond, outstanding durability and excellent solvent and moisture resistance. 3M stands by all of its products and is there to provide you with design guidance and technical support when you need it.
Proven Reliability from 3M™ VHB™ Tapes
3M™ VHB™ Tape offers a durable bond in a way that mechanical fasteners can't. This tape enhances the appearance of finished goods by eliminating rivets and screws while providing immediate handling strength. In most cases, fastening with 3M™ VHB™ Tape is a quicker process than drilling, fastening, or using liquid adhesive. Our versatile line of tapes can be used indoors or outdoors in a variety of applications, including window, door and sign assembly, electronics, construction and countless other industrial applications. Chemically resistant as well as UV and temperature stable, 3M™ VHB™ Tape can withstand the heat of Dubai to the cold of Canada. The unique acrylic chemistry is extremely durable and resistant to change over time, making this a long-lasting and powerful tape you can trust.
