Premium double-sided VHB foam tape with acrylic adhesive for permanent industrial bonding. 48 in x 36 yd, 62 mil thickness, polyethylene film liner. Replaces rivets, welds, and screws with immediate handling strength.
3M™ VHB™ Tape 4956F is a premium double-sided foam tape engineered for permanent bonding applications across industrial sectors. This advanced 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 exceptional bonding performance with 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 seamless alternative to mechanical fasteners such as rivets, welds, and screws, as well as traditional liquid adhesives.
Designed for versatility and reliability, 3M™ VHB™ Tape 4956F utilizes viscoelastic acrylic chemistry that delivers extraordinary bonding power while maintaining flexibility and conformability. This innovative tape adheres effectively to 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 excels in providing excellent shear strength, superior surface adhesion, and outstanding temperature resistance, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications. Its durable construction ensures reliable performance in extreme environments, from the heat of Dubai to the cold of Canada.
Commonly utilized across transportation, appliance, electronics, construction, sign and display, and general industrial markets, 3M™ VHB™ Tape 4956F is certified UL GREENGUARD™ and UL GREENGUARD™ Gold, helping contribute to LEED® credits. The tape provides immediate handling strength without requiring fixtures or waiting for cure time, enabling faster assembly processes compared to drilling, fastening, or using liquid adhesives. This trusted and reliable bonding solution enhances the appearance of finished goods by eliminating visible fasteners while delivering consistent, long-lasting bonds that resist chemical attack, UV exposure, and moisture infiltration.
