3M™ VHB™ Tape 5915 is a double-sided tape comprised of a multi-purpose modified acrylic adhesive with a conformable, foam core that delivers a total thickness of 16 mil (0.4 mm) when applied and requires no curing time. The advanced closed-cell acrylic technology offers secure bonding that performs on many painted and powder coated surfaces. Engineered to be strong, it can replace rivets, welds, and screws while providing faster production by eliminating the need for drilling, welding, grinding, and project cleanup. Offering seamless joining and minimal surface preparation, this easy-to-use bonding method keeps surfaces smooth and aesthetically pleasing resulting in a professional application on thin, lightweight, and dissimilar materials. It performs in applications for short-term use (up to four hours) at a temperature up to 300 °F (149 °C) or long-term use withstanding up to 250 °F (121 °C). This tape balances strength, viscoelasticity, conformability, and adhesion to various surfaces, such as stainless steel. These attributes make 3M™ VHB™ Tape 5915 a reliable choice to take on a variety of bonding and sealing applications in transportation, appliance, electronics, construction, signage, and general industrial. Discover the many ways to apply the powerful bonding potential of 3M™ VHB™ Tape 5915.
