What is 3m9473pc?
3m9473pc is a premium-grade double-sided tape developed under the VHB adhesive system, engineered for high-strength bonding applications where mechanical fasteners are undesirable. With no carrier film and a clear appearance, this tape provides clean bonding for surfaces that require long-term adhesion, even in challenging environments. Its high-performance acrylic adhesive makes it ideal for use on metals, plastics, and composites.
Composition and Structure
- Non-carrier (transfer) tape for direct adhesive-to-adhesive bonding
- Acrylic adhesive 100MP for exceptional bonding power
- Total thickness of 0.25mm
- Transparent in color, suitable for appearance-critical applications
- Backed with 58# polyethylene-coated kraft release liner for stable handling
- Elongation coefficient of 2 for added flexibility under stress
Key Properties
- Extremely high adhesion strength on a wide variety of surfaces
- Long-term temperature resistance up to 149°C
- Short-term temperature resistance up to 260°C
- Excellent resistance to UV, moisture, solvents, and environmental changes
- Good conformability for bonding on irregular or curved surfaces
- Shock absorption properties help protect bonded components
Applications of 3m9473pc
- Bonding of flexible circuits to aluminum heat sinks or stiffeners
- Mounting panels and bezels in electronic devices
- Automotive interior and exterior trim attachment
- Replacement for rivets and screws in industrial assembly
- Nameplate and label mounting on metal and plastic parts
- Bonding mirrors and decorative strips in furniture and household items
Features & Benefits of 3m9473pc
- No visible impact on product aesthetics due to clear construction
- VHB acrylic adhesive ensures durable and permanent adhesion
- Performs under extreme heat and rapid temperature fluctuations
- Easy to die-cut into custom shapes and sizes
- Maintains bond strength even on irregular or curved surfaces
- Reduces production time by eliminating mechanical fasteners
Comparison with Other Adhesive Tapes
- Outperforms standard PET-based double-sided tapes in heat resistance
- Offers better gap-filling and surface conformability than foam tapes
- Superior chemical and UV resistance compared to rubber adhesives
- More durable and permanent than removable or repositionable tapes
