IMPORTANT NOTE: These tables describe the relative adhesion to the listed surface within the product group, you may need to take into consideration factors such as:
Gap filling, ultimate joint strength, joint flexibility or joint thickness, environmental resistance, small or large surface area coverage, application methods, positioning time or cure time.
Please refer to individual product technical datasheets for more complete details of typical product performance.
The technical information and data on these pages should be considered representative or typical only and should not be used for specification purposes. Refer to Technical Data Sheets for specific perfomance measures and
surface preparation requirements. For further assistance contact 3M.
Final product selection should be made only after evaluation of sample bonds.
In general terms, the use of adhesive transfer tapes should be limited to lightweight and/or thin and flexible substrates. The degree of surface contact may be limited when bonding rigid and large parts with thin tapes.
