3M UV Activated Tape 30030 is a translucent, UV-curable, high-strength bonding tape that handles like a pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) before activation. Featuring a middle carrier film for easy converting and application before curing, this tape provides good impact resistance to meet industry drop test requirements and offers high bond strength while ensuring good removability. With the added benefits of initial tackiness and very low shrinkage, 3M UV Activated Tape 30030 is an ideal bonding option for
- BONDING, REIMAGINED: Offers easier application compared to liquid adhesives while activating with light, rather than heat
- ENHANCED PERFORMANCE: Delivers good impact resistance and high bond strength with good reworkability
- FAMILIAR FEEL: Processes and performs like a pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) before UV activation, including the ability to die cut for precision bonding
- CURING TIME: Achieves immediate green strength and full bond strength at room temperature within 24 hours following UV activation
- VARIOUS SUBSTRATES: Bonds opaque and transparent substrates, creating excellent bond strength on most medium and high surface energy materials
- MIDDLE CARRIER FILM: Features a middle carrier film for easy converting and application before curing

PRODUCT FAQ
-
What is 3M™ UV Activated Tape 30030 used for?
This tape is designed for applications where you need a strong bond that's activated by ultraviolet light. It's commonly used in electronics manufacturing, medical device assembly, and other industries where precise, controlled adhesion timing is important.
-
How wide is the tape and how much is on each roll?
The tape comes 584 mm wide and each roll contains 66 meters of material. You get one roll per case, giving you plenty of coverage for most projects.
-
How does the UV activation process work?
The tape requires exposure to ultraviolet light to fully cure and develop its maximum bond strength. This means you can position your materials without the tape sticking immediately, then activate the bond when you're ready by exposing it to UV light.
-
Is this tape suitable for outdoor use?
While the tape uses UV activation, once cured it provides excellent durability. However, I'd recommend confirming your specific environmental conditions with our technical team to ensure it meets your outdoor performance requirements.
-
What surfaces does this tape bond well to?
3M™ UV Activated Tape 30030 bonds effectively to a wide range of materials including plastics, metals, and composites. For best results with your specific materials, our technical support team can provide detailed compatibility information.
3M UV Activated Films and Tapes represent an innovative adhesive solution that strategically merges three distinct bonding technologies into a single, highly effective product. These materials deliver superior bonding performance compared to conventional pressure-sensitive tapes, while simultaneously offering greater ease of application relative to traditional liquid adhesive systems. What sets them apart from conventional heat-activated bonding films is their unique light-activated curing mechanism, which eliminates the need for elevated temperatures during the activation process.
Prior to ultraviolet light exposure, these films and tapes maintain remarkable stability while remaining naturally tacky at ambient room temperature conditions. This pre-activation characteristic enables manufacturers to precisely convert the materials into custom die-cut components with exact specifications. Upon exposure to UV light, the bonding process initiates at room temperature, establishing immediate green strength that provides handling capability. The adhesive continues to develop strength over time, achieving semi-structural bond integrity within a 24-hour period following activation.
Ideal ApplicationsThese distinctive properties position 3M UV Activated Films and Tapes as an optimal choice for bonding small precision components in environments where conventional high-temperature processing or significant mechanical pressure would prove problematic or potentially damaging. Industries and applications that benefit from this technology include:
- Laptop trackpad assemblies
- Fingerprint sensor bonding
- Smartphone front-facing camera modules
- Automotive display panel assembly
- Electronic enclosure sealing and bonding
- Heat-sensitive component attachment
