Elevator & Escalator

3M™ VHB™ Tape is an alternative fastening method which offers superior aesthetic qualities over conventional mechanical fasteners and welding.   3M™ VHB™ Tape also damps vibration and noise for quieter ride.

 3M™ VHB™ Tapes
Applications for Elevator & Escalator
Stiffener Attachment Stiffener Attachment
3M™ VHB™ Tape bonds with high holding strength to replace mechanical fasteners and welds in stiffener attachment.   3M™ VHB™ Tape provides a virtually invisible fastening method that keeps surfaces smooth and clean to enhance design and appearance.
Sheathing Sheathing (Skins) to Frame
3M™ VHB™ Tape offers elastic properties that absorb shock and flex for reliability against vibration and thermal expansion/contraction.  3M™ VHB™ Tape saves processing steps such as drilling, screwing, welding, clean-up, and refinishing.
Cladding Cladding (Decorative Metal, Trim, etc.)
3M™ VHB™ Tape expands the range of design and material options by joining dissimilar materials: 3M™ VHB™ Tape prevents bi-metallic corrosion.   3M™ VHB™ Tape allows a greater range of material selection including the use of lighter weight and thinner substrates that cannot be fastened with conventional fasteners.
