Premium double-sided foam tape with acrylic adhesive for permanent industrial bonding. Provides immediate handling strength, excellent shear strength, and superior temperature resistance. Ideal alternative to rivets, welds, and screws for metal, plastic, and composite bonding.
3M™ VHB™ Tape 4956F is a premium double-sided foam tape engineered for permanent bonding applications across industrial and commercial sectors. This high-performance adhesive tape features a multi-purpose acrylic adhesive combined with a conformable foam core, backed by a 5 mil red printed polyethylene film liner, delivering a total thickness of 62 mil (1.6 mm). The tape provides an excellent balance of strength, conformability, and adhesion to high and medium surface energy materials, making it an ideal alternative to mechanical fasteners such as rivets, welds, and screws.
Designed for versatility and reliability, 3M™ VHB™ Tape 4956F excels in bonding a broad range of substrates including aluminum, stainless steel, galvanized steel, composites, plastics, acrylic, polycarbonate, ABS, and painted or sealed wood and concrete. The tape offers immediate handling strength without requiring fixtures or cure time, enabling faster assembly processes. With its closed-cell acrylic chemistry, this tape demonstrates exceptional durability in extreme environments, resisting both high and low temperatures as well as moisture, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.
Commonly utilized across transportation, appliance, electronics, construction, signage, and general industrial markets, 3M™ VHB™ Tape 4956F is certified by UL GREENGUARD™ and UL GREENGUARD™ Gold, contributing to LEED® credits. The tape's viscoelastic properties enable the use of thinner, lighter-weight, and dissimilar materials compared to traditional fastening methods, while delivering excellent shear strength and surface adhesion. Each case contains 7 rolls, each measuring 1.25 inches wide by 36 yards long, providing comprehensive bonding solutions for panel-to-frame assembly, stiffener attachment, decorative trim, nameplate bonding, and electronic display applications.
