Double-sided acrylic foam mounting tapes have been used in industrial applications for years because of their ability to permanently bond and seal various surface materials while improving productivity and reducing cost.

At Reed Rubber, we start with acrylic foam tapes from 3M and Gaska Tape and then customize these in terms of thickness, width, and the adhesive used. We also have a stock line of acrylic mounting tapes which will work in most applications.

Here are some of the benefits to using acrylic foam tapes.

Increased Productivity

• Bond and seal instantly on contact.
• Eliminates the need for drilling, screwing, and positioning associated with other fasteners.
• Applies easily with no tools or training.

Improved Performance

• Seals more effectively than most fasteners with high holding strength and invisible bond.
• Resists fatigue while distributing stress throughout the entire surface.
• Features excellent vibration dampening & impact resistance qualities.
• Resists solvents, moisture, U.V. and thermal expansion/contraction.
• Joins dissimilar materials.

Improved Appearance:

• No ugly screws, welds, or rivets to distort the look of your product.
• Can be die-cut to fit small, unusual shapes.

Reedmount 4026 Series

RM4026 is mounting tape that creates a permanent dust, light, air and moisture seal. It provides excellent shock, vibration, and noise dampening. It has exceptional dynamic shear properties at cold and hot temperatures, and is moisture/solvent resistant with excellent weathering properties. Available in soft white and gray colored foam, provided on a tear resistant poly film liner. RM4026 reduces production time and cost, thanks to its ease of application.

Reedmount 6626 Series

RM6626 Series consists of a clear solid acrylic core that is coated on both sides with high performance acrylic adhesives. This adhesive system provides excellent long-term holding power. The tape incorporates a strong clear solid core that conforms to a wide variety of substrates providing a superior bond.

RM6626 acrylic tapes are well suited for interior and exterior applications and in many instances can replace rivets, screws, welds, and liquid adhesives. These tapes bond to most dry, clean, oil free surfaces and provide bond strengths along with dynamic shear that is significantly higher than typical pressure-sensitive tapes.

     Specific Performance Characteristics

• Designed specifically where an invisible tape is required.
• High tensile, shear, and peel adhesion.
• Moisture/solvent resistant with excellent weathering properties.
• Shock, vibration, and noise dampening.
• Ease of application reduces production time and cost.
• Creates permanent dust, light, air, and moisture seal.
• Exceptional dynamic shear properties at cold and hot temperatures.
• Clear product provided on a red tear resistant poly film liner.

Typical Mounting Tape applications include:

• Fastener and glue substitute
• Aviation components
• Automotive trim assemblies
• Marine
• Building construction
• Electronics
• Furniture
