BRADY Aggressive Adhesive Double-Sided Acrylic Foam Tape, Clear, 25.4 mm x 4.57 m, Permanent Bonding

Permanent bonding on high surface energy substrates often fails with ordinary tapes—adhesion weakens under heat, UV, or moisture, leading to costly rework. BRADY’s Aggressive Adhesive tape eliminates that risk with a closed-cell acrylic foam core and high-tack acrylic adhesive that forms an instant, durable bond to metals, glass, and many plastics. Whether mounting signs, sealing enclosures, or assembling components, this tape delivers structural strength without screws or liquid adhesives.

Who is it for

Ideal for industrial maintenance teams, sign makers, automotive assemblers, and electronics manufacturers who need reliable, long-term bonding on rigid substrates. It suits both indoor and outdoor applications where vibration, temperature swings, and weather exposure are common.

Main features

• Double-sided acrylic foam tape with aggressive acrylic adhesive on both sides
• Excellent adhesion to high surface energy (HSE) materials: metals, glass, many plastics
• Closed-cell acrylic foam core absorbs stress and compensates for thermal expansion
• High tensile, shear, and peel strength for permanent structural bonds
• Outstanding UV, water, and temperature resistance: short-term up to 149°C, long-term up to 93°C
• Red polyethylene liner protects adhesive and enables easy die-cutting or slitting
• Clear colour blends seamlessly with transparent or light-coloured substrates

Tips

For best results, clean the substrate with isopropyl alcohol and ensure it is dry before applying the tape. Apply firm, even pressure across the entire bond area to activate the adhesive. Allow 24 hours for full bond strength before subjecting the assembly to heavy loads or extreme temperatures.
