3M recently launched two high-performance acrylic foam tape lines for the automotive market: EX4500 and PX5000.
3M tape primers are applied to the bonding surface prior to the application of the tape. Primers are often made of chemicals like isopropyl alcohol and promote and increase adhesion.
While the use of primers can be beneficial, they can also be an irritant to the body and harmful to the environment. Primer application also adds more labor and time to the tape application process. For this reason, 3M has developed two new acrylic foam tapes, EX4500 and PX5000. Marian, a 3M automotive preferred converter, is now offering these materials.
Attachment of exterior trim parts to the automobile: body side moldings, cladding, emblems, nested components, bumper sensors, garnishes, window visors, and chrome appliques.
We have extensive experience die-cutting 3M foam tapes for automotive applications. We are very excited to offer primerless solutions with the potential to enhance your production process and offer cost savings.
