Professional-grade 3M VHB RP+160 GP double-sided adhesive tape with 62 mil thickness, 44" width, and paper liner for industrial bonding and sealing applications requiring immediate handling strength and long-term durability.
3M™ VHB™ Tape RP+160 GP is a premium double-sided industrial adhesive tape featuring a conformable acrylic foam core with paper liner construction. This professional-grade bonding solution offers a total thickness of 62 mil (1.6 mm) and delivers immediate handling strength without requiring fixture time or cure waiting. The tape combines a multi-purpose modified acrylic adhesive with exceptional viscoelastic properties, making it an ideal alternative to traditional mechanical fasteners such as rivets, welds, and screws, or liquid adhesives. With dimensions of 44 inches wide by 36 yards long on a 3-inch core, this single-case offering provides substantial coverage for industrial applications.
The RP+160 GP tape excels in multi-surface bonding applications, effectively adhering to both High Surface Energy (HSE) and Medium Surface Energy (MSE) metals and plastics with minimal surface preparation required. Compatible materials include aluminum, stainless steel, galvanized steel, composites, plastics, acrylic, polycarbonate, and ABS. The closed-cell acrylic chemistry provides superior water resistance, tight sealing, and long-term durability, withstanding temperatures up to 250°F (121°C) for continuous use and up to 450°F (230°C) for short-term applications up to four hours. The pressure-sensitive adhesive technology ensures reliable performance in both indoor and outdoor environments.
This versatile tape is engineered for diverse industrial markets including transportation, appliance manufacturing, electronics, construction, signage, HVAC systems, maintenance and repair operations, and general industrial applications. The seamless joining capability and minimal surface preparation requirements result in smooth, aesthetically pleasing surfaces while enabling the use of thinner, lighter-weight, and dissimilar materials compared to traditional fastening methods. The unique energy-absorbing and stress-relaxing properties provide excellent vibration and fatigue resistance, making it a trusted solution for panel-to-frame bonding, electronic display attachment, decorative trim installation, and countless other demanding industrial bonding and sealing tasks.
