Acrylic Foam Tapes – Holding Together With Adhesive

If someone mentions tape, the first thing that you think of is that transparent roll in your drawers to cover presents. But in the world of construction, car work, sign work and everyday repairs, there is an entirely different form of tape that is headed up some serious heavy duty lifting, quite literally.

You may think that there is not really much to Acrylic foam tapes and Acrylic double sided tape but these two kinds are the unsung hero of holding together things that do not seem to have much in common like the sleek glass facade, and trims on vehicles. What is so special about them? It is the strength, flexibility and long-term durability with which they can connect dissimilar surfaces.

Acrylic foam tapes are durable and they are meant to stay unlike the ordinary tapes which wear out with time or even become loose as weather takes its toll on them. They do not break into sweats when it comes to heat, moisture, UV rays, and vibrations. Got a metal piece to fasten on to plastic? Or affix signage on un-flat surfaces? All of that is handled with those tapes without screws, bolts, or even messy glues.

The two sides of the Acrylic double sided tape version have a clean finish, almost unnoticeable finish, which is ideal in instances when appearance plays an important role. It provides you a firm bond without the mess or the pain to make a DIY art installation, to assemble furniture, or to hang mirrors on the wall.

And the cherry on the cake is that the Acrylic double sided tape is extremely simple to use. No curing time. There is no clamping required. It is as simple as peel, stick, press and that is all.

Then next time when you feel that you have to drill something or glue something, think again and think of Acrylic foam tapes. This new technology of adhesives is showing that strength does not need to be visible; sometimes it is the one doing the job behind the scenes making our work cleaner, faster and more efficient.
