Premium double-sided foam bonding tape with 62 mil thickness, providing permanent high-strength adhesion to metals, plastics, and composites. Immediate handling strength, no cure time needed. UL GREENGUARD certified. 9 rolls per case.
3M™ VHB™ Tape 4956F is a premium double-sided foam bonding tape engineered for industrial and occupational applications requiring permanent, high-strength adhesion. This innovative tape features a multi-purpose acrylic adhesive combined with a conformable foam core, backed by a polyethylene film liner, delivering a total thickness of 62 mil (1.6 mm). The tape provides immediate handling strength without requiring fixtures or cure time, making it an ideal alternative to traditional mechanical fasteners such as rivets, welds, and screws, or liquid adhesives that require extended drying periods.
The 4956F tape excels in bonding a diverse range of materials including aluminum, stainless steel, galvanized steel, composites, plastics, acrylic, polycarbonate, ABS, and painted or sealed wood and concrete. Its exceptional shear strength, conformability, and surface adhesion make it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications across multiple industries including transportation, appliances, electronics, construction, signage, and general industrial manufacturing. The tape's closed-cell acrylic chemistry provides outstanding durability and can withstand extreme environmental conditions, from the intense heat of Dubai to the extreme cold of Canada.
Certified by UL GREENGUARD™ and UL GREENGUARD™ Gold, this tape contributes to LEED® credits and environmental sustainability goals. Each case contains 9 rolls, with each roll measuring 1 inch in width and 36 yards in length, providing ample material for production runs and assembly operations. The tape's versatility enables designers to create thinner, lighter-weight assemblies using dissimilar materials, while maintaining superior bonding performance and aesthetic appeal by eliminating visible fasteners.
