3M™ Automotive Acrylic Plus Attachment Tape 06397, Black, 1.52 mm, 1/2 in x 10 yd, 12 Roll/Case

Two Adhesives for Automotive Parts and Paint Systems

Developed specifically for attaching exterior trim and other parts to automotive substrates, 3M™ Automotive Acrylic Plus Attachment Tape 06397 features a thick, durable 1.52 mm acrylic foam core with two different adhesives – one for each side of the application. The liner-side adhesive  delivers excellent adhesion to plastic and metal surfaces commonly found in automotive trim and other components. The-non liner-side adhesive provides very high initial and final adhesion for automotive paint surfaces, including scratch- and mar-resistant paint systems. Both adhesives are formulated for very high adhesive build and final adhesion to automotive surfaces.

Thick Foam Core Handles Higher Loads

The thick, 1.52 mm viscoelastic foam core conforms well even to complex geometries. It is engineered for stress relaxation when exposed to high stress loads, and maintains bond-line aesthetics under normal stress loads. The black color of this OEM approved tape helps create sharp bond-lines. Its ½” width makes it suitable for a versatile range of applications. A red, 3M branded liner provides easy one-piece release for efficient application.

Confidence in Your Purchase

The 3M branded liner features a subtle 3M logo-marking to provide evidence to the customer that they are receiving the 3M quality they expect from their purchase.  The liner makes 3M tapes easy to identify and difficult to imitate.  This proprietary branding technology is designed to help identification of 3M™ Acrylic Foam Tapes.

3M recommends the use of 3M™ Automotive Adhesion Promoter 06396 for tape-to-part adhesion with 3M™ Automotive Acrylic Plus Attachment Tape 06397 on all plastic parts such as RIM, TPO, PPO, PP and PC.

Better Science for Better Adhesion from 3M

Since 1925 when a 3M lab assistant invented masking tape, 3M has been applying science to life –developing adhesive products and technologies that help entire industries and individual businesses worldwide. The work that began with a single 3M engineer now spans decades and generations - and all of it goes into each 3M product developed for automotive OEM, like 3M™ Automotive Acrylic Plus Attachment Tape 06397.
