What is 3M™ VHB™ Tape LSE-160WF?

3M™ VHB™ Tape LSE‑160WF is a white, 1.6 mm (62 mil) thick, double-sided acrylic foam tape with a soft, conformable closed-cell core and high initial tack.

It bonds effectively to low surface energy substrates—such as polypropylene (PP), thermoplastic olefins (TPO), thermoplastic elastomers (TPE), and composite materials—without the need for primer or adhesion promoters. This makes it easy to apply while delivering a clean, permanent bond.
