PRODUCT FAQ
-
What are the dimensions and coverage of each roll?
Each roll is 1/2 inch wide by 36 yards long, which gives you plenty of tape for most projects. With 18 rolls per case, you're looking at a total of 648 yards of coverage – that's a great value for high-volume applications!
-
What makes VHB tape different from regular adhesive tape?
VHB tape uses a special acrylic foam adhesive that creates an incredibly strong, permanent bond without any screws, nails, or rivets. It actually distributes stress more evenly across the bonded area, which means stronger, longer-lasting connections compared to traditional fasteners.
-
Is this tape suitable for outdoor use?
Absolutely! The VHB LVO-040BF is specifically designed to withstand outdoor conditions. It has excellent UV resistance and can handle temperature fluctuations, moisture, and weathering, making it perfect for exterior applications like signage, trim, and panel bonding.
-
What surfaces can I use this tape on?
This tape works great on most common surfaces including metals, painted surfaces, plastics, and composites. Just make sure the surface is clean and dry before application, and you'll get that powerful VHB bond we're known for!
