Premium soft adhesive-backed gripping material with micro-replicated fingers for superior grip enhancement, slip resistance, and durability across industrial applications. Features low surface energy acrylic adhesive, excellent UV resistance, and wide temperature range performance.
The 3M™ Gripping Material GM641 is a premium soft, adhesive-backed gripping material engineered to provide exceptional grip enhancement and slip resistance across a wide variety of industrial applications. Constructed with thousands of micro-replicated gripping fingers, this innovative product delivers a lighter yet tighter grip for maximum hold with minimum effort. The material features a low surface energy acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive that bonds reliably to numerous surfaces including low surface energy plastics and powder-coated paints, making it ideal for both peel-and-stick applications and spiral wrapping around handles and shafts.
This black gripping material is specifically designed for industrial and occupational use, offering superior performance characteristics that make it ideal for equipment handles, levers, steering wheels, power tools, and sports equipment. The soft thermoplastic elastomer gripping polymer provides high friction properties with increased cushioning, comfort, flexibility, and softness, ensuring user comfort during prolonged contact. When mated with another gripping material, the GM641 delivers exceptional durability and maintains high coefficient of friction properties even in wet conditions, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.
The 3M™ Gripping Material GM641 performs exceptionally well across a broad temperature range from -40°F to 140°F (-40°C to 60°C), ensuring reliable performance in diverse climates and seasonal conditions. With the best UV sunlight resistance among gripping material products, this material is an excellent choice for exterior applications and those exposed to direct sunlight. The material can be easily customized through shear cutting, die-cutting, laser cutting, or other conversion methods, providing flexibility for various manufacturing processes. Typically, 3M™ Gripping Material can outlast leather in factory or field conditions, offering superior longevity and value.
