Professional-grade double-sided foam bonding tape offering permanent strength, immediate handling, and superior adhesion to multiple substrates. UL GREENGUARD certified alternative to rivets, welds, and screws for industrial applications.
3M™ VHB™ Tape 4956F is a premium double-sided foam bonding tape engineered for permanent, high-strength applications across multiple industries. This innovative tape features a conformable acrylic foam core backed with a polyethylene film liner, delivering a total thickness of 62 mil (1.6 mm). The multi-purpose acrylic adhesive provides immediate handling strength without requiring fixture time or cure periods, making it an ideal alternative to mechanical fasteners such as rivets, welds, and screws. With dimensions of 2 inches wide by 36 yards long, this tape comes in a 4-roll case format suitable for industrial and occupational use.
The 4956F tape is specifically designed to adhere to a broad range of high and medium surface energy materials including aluminum, stainless steel, galvanized steel, composites, plastics, acrylic, polycarbonate, ABS, and painted or sealed wood and concrete. It delivers exceptional shear strength, conformability, and surface adhesion while offering excellent outdoor durability and performance. The tape resists both high and low temperatures, with maximum operating temperature of 300°F (149°C), and provides superior moisture resistance. Its unique closed-cell acrylic chemistry is proven to withstand extreme environments, from the heat of Dubai to the cold of Canada.
Commonly used across transportation, appliance, electronics, construction, sign and display, and general industrial applications, the 3M VHB Tape 4956F is UL GREENGUARD™ and UL GREENGUARD™ Gold Certified, helping contribute to LEED® credits. This versatile bonding solution enables the use of thinner, lighter-weight, and dissimilar materials compared to traditional rivets and welds, while enhancing the appearance of finished goods by eliminating visible fasteners. The tape's viscoelastic properties ensure consistent bonding performance and outstanding durability over time.
