Description
Chem-Set™ VST 3025 is a Clear ultra-thin (10 mil/0.010″) general purpose high bond tape, specially designed for materials with high and medium surface energy like metals and most plastics. Virtually invisible in many instances, this tape is perfect for lightweight, thin and small materials in many shapes and sizes, and allows for good adhesive performance on a variety of molded parts.
This ultra-thin tape is designed to adhere to various surfaces, such as ABS, polycarbonates, rigid PVC, phenolic resins, glass, epoxy, aluminum, galvanized steel, enameled steel, stainless steel, nickel, and ceramic. VST3025 has excellent UV, aging, solvent, and high-temperature resistance (150°C to 260°C). VST 3025 is widely used in various die-cut shapes, irregular and curved surfaces, and in a diversity of electronic assembly bonding applications, such as digital cameras, portable audio devices, cell phones, display attachment, process control systems, decorative bezel and television screen attachments, and lens and antenna attachment. For difficult-to-bond surfaces, as used in today’s electronic assembly industry, and for situations where the bond needs to be invisible, we recommend Chem-Set ™ VST 3025.
Suitable For:
- Glass/ Glass Epoxy
- Stainless Steel
- Galvanized Steel
- Anodized Steel
- Coated Aluminum
- High and medium surface energy plastics
General Information:
Has a closed cell structure which is wind and water resistant. Because it is 100% acrylic based, it will form an almost indestructible bond between materials. This tape is resistant to UV, aging, and solvents, with good plasticizer resistance. This tape bonds immediately and offers resistance to the peel and shear loads that can affect a bond. This tape is very well suited to absorb dynamic loads as they are viscoelastic and can act as a sealant, form a permanent, tension free bond, and are suitable to bond many different types of synthetic materials.
