Hi Nick, The first step would be to test for adhesion. My assumption is you are not having high adhesion with the VHB Tape you're using or you do not have enough tape to withstand the stress load. 60C...

Hi DAnaya, Please see the reply from this thread: https://industrialcommunity.3m.com/blog/question/stainless-steel-to-silicone/ It describes the difficulties in bonding silicone to other substrates...

Hi Sumit, the list of requirements you pose is an interesting one. Due to the chemistry of adhesives, we generally do not have a tape that thermally insulates perfectly when bonding two substrates together....

Hi Clint, Thanks for the interest in our products! Normally for exterior signage we would recommend using one of our 3M™ VHB™ Tapes, however, bonding to PVC has certain limitations. Due...

Hi Wil, Thanks for taking an interest in our products! There are a few solutions that might work for this application, however, due to the pressures you may be experiencing, adequate testing will need...

Hi Alex, For an exterior application where durability is critical, 3M VHB tapes have a long history of success. Depending on your application surfaces (I'm assuming anodized aluminum and painted fiberglass)...

Hi Tstuckey, I’ve attached a durability report that should cover the questions: https://multimedia.3m.com/mws/media/98989O/3m-vhb-tape-durability-technical-bulletin.pdf In short: Real-time testing...

Hi mushroommatt, Thanks for the question. There are multiple options that may work for this application, however it is a difficult environment. Due to the low surface energy of EPDM, an LSE-specific...

Hi Julie, Thanks for the question. When adhering to fabrics there are a couple of directions you could go. One option to try would be: 3M™ Double Coated Tape 9832, https://3m.citrination.com/pif/000296?locale=en-US...

Hi Scott, There is a lot to unpack here and until you have settled on your materials there is not too much advice we can give. The difference in rubber "dots" will change the type of adhesive that functions...

Hi srsoupy, There are several ways to approach this problem. If you are only looking for weld protection then testing  3M™ Marine Adhesive/Sealant Fast Cure 4000 UV would be a good starting point...

Hi Scott,  

Hi dominiqueFRS, This will be dependent on what you are trying to bond, can you give any more details about the application?

Hi Ken, That looks like an interesting application. A good place to start with this would be a structural acrylic as they will be more resistant to plasticizer migration from the PVC zipper. 3M™...

Hi chrisbudda, Depending on the type of foam you are using we have several options, mostly based on whether the cells are open or closed and their relative size. However, if removability is a key feature,...

HuntsmanChemist, sorry for the late reply but the tape they are using does not appear to be a 3M tape.  They reference an 0.045” thick air permeable tape which is applied to both glass panels.  I assume...

Hi garydfw, Can you be more specific about what type of plastic you are bonding? Perhaps add some images? There are several adhesive solutions to choose from depending on the type of plastic. Thanks!

Hi Laurence, I'd have to learn a little more about your issue to make a suggestion for bonding materials. What is the type of plastic cap you are bonding to and what's causing the lens to detach? Is...

Hi zeuslove, Depending on how thin you want to make this, if you were able bond it with 3M™ Super 77™ Multi-Purpose Spray Adhesive – Low VOC <25% (Aerosol), that would hold the fabric...

Yes, it should be fine contacting those fittings.
