Professional-grade double-sided flame retardant foam tape with 40 mil thickness, designed for permanent bonding on powder-coated and painted surfaces. Replaces rivets, welds, and screws with immediate handling strength and no curing time required.
3M™ VHB™ Flame Retardant Tape 5958FR is a premium double-sided adhesive tape engineered for industrial applications requiring superior bonding performance on powder-coated and painted surfaces. This innovative tape features a conformable acrylic foam core with modified acrylic adhesive on both sides, delivering a total thickness of 40 mil (1.0 mm) without requiring any curing time. The advanced closed-cell acrylic technology provides immediate handling strength and secure bonding that performs exceptionally on challenging surfaces including stainless steel, aluminum, galvanized steel, composites, plastics, acrylic, and polycarbonate.
Designed as a professional alternative to traditional mechanical fasteners such as rivets, welds, and screws, this tape eliminates the need for drilling, welding, grinding, and extensive cleanup while maintaining superior aesthetic appeal. The tape offers exceptional versatility across multiple industries including transportation, appliance manufacturing, electronics, construction, signage, metalworking, and general industrial applications. Its viscoelastic acrylic foam core provides unique energy-absorbing and stress-relaxing properties, making it ideal for vibration and fatigue-resistant applications.
The 5958FR variant meets stringent flame retardant requirements, passing FAR 25.853 (a) 12-second vertical burn testing, making it suitable for aerospace and high-performance applications. With excellent indoor and outdoor durability, this tape withstands long-term use at temperatures up to 200°F (93°C) and short-term applications at temperatures up to 300°F (149°C). Each roll measures 47 inches wide by 36 yards long, providing substantial coverage for large-scale industrial bonding and sealing projects. The tape delivers high shear strength, exceptional conformability, and superior surface adhesion while offering outstanding chemical resistance and UV stability.
