Premium high-performance double-sided acrylic foam tape with 470 psi bond strength, designed to replace fasteners and welding in industrial applications. 22in x 36yd gray tape with immediate handling strength.
The 3M™ VHB™ Tape Max-160GF is a premium double-sided acrylic foam tape engineered to replace mechanical fasteners, welding, and liquid adhesives in demanding industrial applications. This high-performance bonding solution delivers exceptional bond strength up to 470 psi (3.24 MPa) in overlap shear, making it significantly stronger than standard VHB tapes. The tape features a 1.6mm (62 mil) thick acrylic foam core with a polyethylene film liner, providing immediate handling strength for faster assembly and processing times.
Designed for versatility across multiple industries including transportation, building construction, appliances, and general manufacturing, the Max-160GF offers excellent adhesion to a wide range of materials including metals and high surface energy substrates. The gray color tape measures 22 inches in width and 36 yards in length, providing substantial coverage for large-scale bonding projects. Its firm foam construction creates smooth, seamless finishes while eliminating the need for drilling, welding, and subsequent cleanup operations.
This tape is part of the renowned 3M VHB Tape portfolio, known for exceptional viscoelastic properties and durability. For optimal results on various substrates and environmental conditions, it is recommended to use this tape with 3M VHB Tape Max Promoter. With a 24-month shelf life and available in multiple thickness options (0.6mm, 1.1mm, 1.6mm, and 2.3mm), the Max-160GF represents the strongest acrylic foam tape in the VHB lineup, ideal for semi-structural bonding applications.
