PRODUCT FAQ
-
What is 3M™ Dual Lock™ Reclosable Fastener TB3540?
3M™ Dual Lock™ Reclosable Fastener TB3540 is a black, pressure-sensitive adhesive backed reclosable fastener with mushroom-shaped heads.
-
What makes it different from other types of fasteners?
Unlike traditional systems that use hooks and loops, Dual Lock uses interlocking mushroom-shaped heads to create a secure attachment. It can be opened and closed thousands of times without losing strength, making it ideal for frequently accessed or repositioned items.
-
How strong is the fastening power of this product?
The Type 250/250 construction (meaning there are 250 stems per square inch on both sides) provides up to five times the closure strength than typical hook-and-loop closures. This can reliably hold ten pounds or more depending on temperature conditions, substrates used etc.
-
; How much does one bag contain?
; One bag contains one mated strip per package in size -1 inch x10 ft- along with pressures sensitive backing. Also available two strips which would include male/female sets within each strip
Durable and secure, 3M™ Dual Lock™ Reclosable Fastener TB3540 has exceptional strength through its interlocking mushroom-shaped heads (250 stem density per square inch), providing up to 5X the tensile strength of typical hook-and-loop products. 3M designed this fastener with a synthetic, rubber-based, black PE foam tape protected by a removable, film liner. This pressure sensitive adhesive features quick stick and a short dwell time. With 3M™ Dual Lock™ Reclosable Fastener TB3540, there is no need for any drilling, screwing or sewing tools which makes for quick installation.
Recommended Applications:- Access panels
- Graphic attachment
- Specialty vehicles (interior attachments)
- General industrial attachment

3M™ Dual Lock™ Reclosable Fastener TB3540 consists of interlocking mushroom-shaped heads that easily slide over each other, allowing for positioning of parts before being snapped together. This fastening process creates a durable attachment and provides fast product assembly with great design flexibility. Reclosable fasteners can also engage with different stem densities for varying levels of strength and system performance.
3M Trial Bags Simplify Selection3M™ Dual Lock™ Reclosable Fastener Trial Bags provide a simplified "go-to" selection that has proven successful for most common applications, along with just the right length (1 in. x 10 ft.) and quantity for trial run testing.
Hundreds of Reattachments in a SnapWhen two pieces of 3M™ Dual Lock™ Reclosable Fasteners mate, the stems flex and the mushroom heads slide past each other. After passing the opposing mating piece, the stems snap back into their original position and the opposing mushroom heads interlock. These fasteners can provide high tensile strength but can be opened by simply cleaving or peeling open the closure. This product is well suited for many indoor and outdoor applications where a high strength and versatile reclosable fastening system is required.
Delivers Long-Lasting PerformanceNot all design requirements are easily satisfied, but you can simplify your attachments. When you need a strong, reliable, yet removable closure, 3M™ Dual Lock™ Reclosable Fasteners are the easy alternative to traditional fastening methods such as screws, nuts or bolts.
