	Stiffener Attachment 3M™ VHB™ Tapes bond with high holding strength to replace silicone adhesives, stud bolts and other mechanical fasteners instiffener attachment. 3M™ VHB™ Tapes not only meet the performance requirements, but also offer potential labor savings which may reduce your total stiffener assembly costs.
	Panels to Frame 3M™ VHB™ Tapes offer elastic properties that absorb shock and flex for reliability against wind, vibration and thermal expansion/contraction.
	Cladding (Decorative Metal, Trim, etc.) 3M™ VHB™ Tapes expand the range of design and material options by joining dissimilar materials: 3M™ VHB™ Tape prevents bi-metallic corrosion. 3M™ VHB™ Tapes allows a greater range of material selection including the use of lighter weight and thinner substrates that cannot be fastened with conventional fasteners.
