Rubber and Acrylic Adhesive Systems

At the core of our automotive tapes are our rubber and acrylic adhesive systems, which offer distinct advantages depending on the application.

Rubber Adhesive Systems: Known for their strong initial tack and excellent adhesion to various substrates, rubber adhesives are ideal for applications where immediate bonding strength is critical. These systems are particularly effective in areas requiring a robust, long-lasting hold, such as in gasket applications and other sealing needs.

Low-VOC Acrylic Adhesive Systems: Acrylic adhesives are valued for their long-term stability and resistance to environmental factors such as UV light, heat, and chemicals. These adhesives maintain their performance over time, making them suitable for applications where durability and endurance are crucial. For example, acrylic-based tapes are often used in mounting and insulating applications where exposure to harsh conditions is expected.

Both adhesive systems are available in double-coated and double-coated differential configurations, providing versatility in application. The double-coated tapes feature adhesive on both sides, making them perfect for bonding two surfaces together, while the double-coated differential tapes offer different adhesive strengths on each side, catering to specific bonding requirements.
