Premium 0.8mm acrylic foam tape for automotive exterior trim attachment with excellent adhesion across -40°C to 120°C temperature range, superior stress relaxation, and outstanding weather and solvent resistance.
3M™ Acrylic Foam Tape GT6008 is a premium 0.8mm thickness tape specifically engineered for the reliable attachment of exterior trim parts on automobiles. This high-performance adhesive tape delivers excellent adhesive performance across various temperature conditions, ranging from -40°C to 120°C, making it ideal for both pre-paint and post-paint applications. The tape features a highly conformable acrylic foam core with exceptional stress relaxation properties that allow it to follow the natural shrinkage and elongation of plastic parts caused by temperature changes, ensuring a durable and aesthetically pleasing bond line that maintains integrity under normal stress loads.
The GT6008 tape combines superior adhesion characteristics with outstanding flexibility and durability. Its viscoelastic core delivers excellent wet out and conforms well to complex geometries commonly found in automotive exterior components. The polyethylene liner enables easy liner release and is compatible with tabbing and splicing tapes, supporting both manual and automatic application processes. With good initial adhesion allowing immediate further processing without temporary support or fixtures, this tape significantly improves production efficiency while maintaining exceptional final adhesion and peel strength.
Suitable for a wide variety of automotive exterior applications including claddings, pillars, rocker panels, sill plates, step pads, sunroof seals, spoilers, wheel arch extensions, and sensor brackets, the 3M Acrylic Foam Tape GT6008 excels in weather, solvent, and high-temperature resistance. The red polyethylene liner features subtle 3M logo-marking for easy identification, and the tape is compatible with 3M Tabbing Tape options 5400, 5081, 5082, or 5300 for enhanced processing flexibility.
