WHAT STANDS OUT:

Heavy-duty 3M VHB acrylic foam: Holds up to 3 lb per 2 in of tape when properly applied.
16 ft roll, 0.94 in (24 mm) wide: Wide format for heavier objects, LED channels, trims, and panels.
Waterproof, weather-resistant adhesive: Works for indoor and outdoor installs, even in damp conditions.
Easy, hardware-free installation: Red peel liner and plastic applicator for quick, clean, no-drill mounting.

PRODUCT DETAILS:

This heavy-duty, double-sided mounting tape utilizes industrial-grade 3M VHB acrylic adhesive to replace screws, nails, and other mechanical fasteners in permanent mounting applications. The tape is rated to hold up to 3 lb per 2 inches of width when fully compressed on clean, smooth surfaces, making it suitable for demanding projects and heavier items.

Each roll provides 16 feet (4.87 m) of black tape at 0.94 inches (24 mm) wide, with a 0.025 inch (0.64 mm) thick foam core. The viscoelastic foam helps the tape conform to slight surface irregularities and provides cushioning and vibration damping—ideal for automotive, equipment, cabinet, and sound-dampening installations.

The acrylic adhesive is waterproof and weatherproof for both indoor and outdoor use. Once fully cured, it adheres reliably even in damp environments and under changing weather conditions. A red peel-off liner makes placement visible and easy to manage, and the included plastic applicator tool helps press the tape firmly into place for maximum bond strength with no drilling, screwing, or heating required.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

Q: What is this 16 ft double-sided mounting tape used for?
A: This tape is a heavy duty 3M VHB foam mounting tape for attaching LED strip lights, signs, trim, panels, mirrors, plastic parts, and other objects without screws or nails. It is designed for permanent, high-strength bonding on clean, smooth indoor and outdoor surfaces.

Q: How strong is the adhesive and how much weight can it hold?
A: The adhesive is rated at about 1 lb per inch of width and can hold up to 3 lb per 2 in section when properly applied and fully compressed. For best results, use enough tape surface area for the load and allow curing time before placing the bond under stress.

Q: Is this tape waterproof and suitable for outdoor use?
A: Yes. The tape is waterproof and weather-resistant, so it can be used indoors and outdoors, including in damp conditions. Once fully cured, it adheres reliably even in environments exposed to moisture and varying temperatures.

Q: Does the tape have a foam core, and why does that matter?
A: The tape has a 0.025 inch thick foam core that provides cushioning and helps it conform to uneven surfaces. This viscoelastic foam, combined with the acrylic adhesive, makes the tape suitable for most common surfaces and for installations where vibration or minor movement is expected.

Q: Is the tape flexible, or does it curl during installation?
A: The tape is flexible and designed to resist curling, which keeps installation fast and straightforward. It remains simple to peel and reposition as long as it has not been fully compressed into place.

Q: Does the tape leave residue when removed, and how do I remove it?
A: Because of its strong adhesive, removal can be challenging and may leave residue if not done carefully. Use a heat gun or steamer to soften the adhesive, lift an edge with a sharp, flat tool, and peel slowly at a low angle; any remaining adhesive can be cleaned with a suitable adhesive remover that is safe for the surface.

Q: Is it easy to apply this tape?

A: Yes. The red liner makes it easy to see and peel the tape, and the included plastic applicator helps press it firmly into place. No drilling, screwing, or heating is required—just peel, stick, and compress for a secure bond.

NOT what expected

This is a very cheap "knock-off" product made in China. I now will have to order directly from 3M.

Two sided tape

It was exactly what I needed. I used it to help hold tail lights on golf cart. It worked great.

Works Great

Perfect for hanging what I needed to. Easy to apply as well

So strong

At first, this tape's nature confused me as there was stickiness on both sides. Then, realizing that this dual-stickiness was intended, I used this tape--with much success--to bind various sound-dampening fur-panels throughout my many rooms because of noisy neighbor. These fur-panels stay in place--i.e., they do not move--because of the strength of this tape. This tape, too, is strong enough to hold many things--photo, calendar, iconic image, child--to walls, with strength. VERY recommend.

It's Heavy Duty and It Works

I have used other double-sided tapes before, but I always return to the 3M outdoor heavy-duty tape all the time. Make sure your surface is clean on both sides before applying and apply pressure after the application to make sure it has good surface tension.
Works well, no complaints on it. It's as advertised and performs well under heat as well.
It will leave residue over time especially with exposure to heat so keep that in mind. You may want to use the 3M adhesive remover spray if you want to remove this at some point.

Useless

These will not secure the wire. Even slight pressure will pull the wire loose. Basically useless

Great Connectors!

These connectors are very well made. The screw mechanism also feels solid when you attach the wires or the light strips.

The screw driver is a little on the cheap side, but since that is not part of the connectors I am still rating the connector 5 stars; I just use my own screwdriver.

The thing I cannot figure out is what the little adhesive stickers are for. I THOUGHT they were to attach the connector, but the stickers only have adhesive on one side, that is, they are not double sided adhesive. See photo.
If you peel the sticker that says "3M" off it is sticky on one side. Once you peel the "3M" sticker off one side underneath there is a white slick paper (no adhesive). You flip that over and the other side is brown and say "3M". You peel that off it is also sticky on one side and you are left with the OTHER side of the white slick paper (no adhesive on this side either). So what you have is a total of three pieces once you have finished peeling everything off. Two pieces that say "3M" and are sticky on side, and one piece that is white and slick paper with no sticky on either side.

None of these items are double sided adhesive, so if someone can tell me what they are for I would appreciate it.

Great experience love the product.
