Adhesive Transfer Tapes

F9473PC ∙ 468MP ∙ 467MP ∙ 9665 ∙ 9485PC ∙ 950

Product Information November 2007
Description 3MTM Adhesive Transfer Tapes consist of a layer of acrylic adhesive coated onto a silicone
paper release liner. The different formulations of adhesive lend specific properties to the
different tapes and can provide adhesion to a wide variety of surfaces under most conditions.
See below for description of individual tapes.

General • Excellent adhesion to most surfaces

Features • Flexible to conform to irregular surfaces
• Hand tearable
• High tack level offers high immediate adhesion
• Easily converted by die-cutting
• Excellent durability. Resistant to most solvents, high temperatures and to UV exposure

Tape F9473PC 3M™ VHB™ Adhesive Transfer Tape, F9473PC has excellent long term holding
Description/ power with much higher adhesion strength to metal than typical pressure
Features sensitive adhesives. F9473PC is ideal for use in many industrial applications on
high surface energy materials, to replace rivets, spot welds, liquid adhesives
and other permanent fasteners.
468MP/ 3M Adhesive Transfer Tapes 468MP and 467MP are popular choices for graphic
467MP attachment applications due to their excellent quality, consistency and
durability. In addition, 468MP and 467MP exhibit excellent clarity, high
temperature performance, solvent chemical and moisture resistance as well as
excellent shear and peel strength on high surface energy materials that
minimises edge lifting and slippage of parts. 468MP and 467MP provide some
repositionability when bonding to plastic parts (not metal) which allows graphics
to be lifted and repositioned if initial alignment is incorrect.
9665 3M Adhesive Transfer Tape 9665 is ideal for bonding together a wide variety of
similar and dissimilar materials such as metals, glass, wood, paints and many
high surface energy plastics. 9665 is particularly suitable for bonding papers and
is ‘acid free’ or pH neutral for long term mounting of prints and photographs
9485PC 3M Adhesive Transfer Tape 9485PC is a fibre reinforced adhesive which is ideal
for very high bond strength to most surfaces. 9485PC can withstand high
temperatures and is a good choice for applications requiring adhesion to both
high and low surface energy plastics, paints and powder coatings and slightly
oily metals.
950 3M Adhesive Transfer Tape 950 is a medium firm pressure sensitive adhesive
that has very high initial adhesion and good shear holding power. 950 bonds to
a wide variety of surfaces including ‘difficult to stick to’ low surface energy
plastics like polyethylene and polypropylene.

Format Available in 12.7mm, 19mm, 25.4mm, 38mm, 50.8mm and 305mm x 55m rolls
Custom width rolls are available upon request

Application • Apply between 10˚C and 40˚C.

Technique • Ensure surfaces to be bonded are clean, dry and well unified.
• Firm application pressure helps develop better adhesive contact and improves bond
strength.
• Converters of wide webs should refer to the Technical Bulletin “Lamination
Techniques for converters of Laminating Adhesives”

Application • Lamination of foams, fabrics and papers

Ideas • Web splicing for paper and corrugated board
• Attaching lightweight signs, nameplates and plaques
• Production of promotional signage or sample boards
• Graphics attachment
• Mounting prints and photographs
