VHB™ (VERY

HIGH BOND)

TA P E S

• High-contact adhesion to glass • Replace rivets or other mechanical fasteners • Compensate for differences in thermal expansion • Die-cut for easy assembly • Immediate bonding to pre-painted metal • Use lighter, thinner materials • Increased adhesion over time

Stress resistance, simplification, economy and more. One of the primary benefits of adhesive is that it holds something together resisting the stress trying to pull it apart.

Most applications combine stresses. The following six points elaborate on the advantages of using adhesives for stress resistance and more. • Uniform distribution of stress over the entire bonded area can eliminate stress concentration caused by rivets, spot welds and similar mechanical fastening. Lighter, thinner materials can often be used without sacrificing strength

• Elastomeric flexibility improves resistance to vibration fatigue • Holes are eliminated to maintain the integrity of the bonded material. This can reduce finishing and increase design flexibility • Continuous contact between mating surfaces can effectively bond and seal against many environmental conditions

• Bonding laminates of dissimilar materials can produce combinations superior in strength and performance to either adherent alone. Adhesive flexibility compensates for differences in coefficients of expansion

Tensile stress • is exerted equally over the entire joint straight and away from the adhesive bond

• Costs can be cut by reducing material requirements and weight; eliminating drilling, welding, screwing, and similar operations.applications, and adhesives for thousands more

Shear stress • is across the adhesive bond. he bonded materials are being forced to slide over each other

OTHER OPTIONS

Cleavage stress • is concentrated at one edge and exerts a prying force on the bond Peel stress • is concentrated along a thin line at the bond's edge. One surface is flexible
