Premium 90 mil double-sided VHB tape with modified acrylic adhesive, kraft paper liner, and exceptional durability for industrial bonding and sealing applications
3M™ VHB™ Tape RP+230GP is a premium double-sided tape comprised of a multi-purpose modified acrylic adhesive with a densified kraft paper liner. Featuring a conformable foam core with a total thickness of 90 mil (2.3 mm), this tape delivers an exceptional balance of strength, viscoelasticity, conformability, and superior adhesion to high and medium surface energy metals and plastics. The pressure-sensitive adhesive technology ensures outstanding water resistance and tight sealing for long-term durability, making it an ideal alternative to mechanical fasteners such as rivets, welds, and screws.
This versatile bonding solution is compatible with various materials including aluminum, stainless steel, galvanized steel, composites, plastics, acrylic, polycarbonate, and ABS. The tape can withstand temperatures up to 450°F (230°C) for short-term use (up to four hours) and maintains reliable performance at temperatures up to 250°F (121°C) for long-term applications. The seamless joining capability combined with minimal surface preparation requirements makes installation quick and efficient, resulting in smooth and aesthetically pleasing surfaces.
Developed and introduced by 3M in 1980, the RP+ Tape Family technology is engineered to promote productivity, reliability, and exceptional durability across diverse industrial applications. With unique acrylic chemistry providing UV and chemical resistance, this tape excels in transportation, appliance manufacturing, electronics, construction, signage, HVAC, maintenance and repair, and general industrial markets. Each case contains 9 rolls of 1-inch width by 36-yard length, offering excellent value for high-volume bonding and sealing operations.
