3M™ VHB™ LVO 160BF

3M™ VHB™ LVO 160BF

The 3M™ VHB™ LVO 160BF is a premium 1.1 mm thick grey acrylic foam tape designed for high-strength bonding under challenging environmental and thermal conditions. Featuring a conformable acrylic foam core and a high-performance acrylic adhesive, it ensures exceptional adhesion to a wide range of substrates, including metal, aluminum, and ABS – even those with medium surface energy.

Engineered for both interior and exterior use, this tape provides excellent resistance to UV, solvents, moisture, and aging. It creates long-lasting, weatherproof bonds that can withstand exposure to high temperatures, making it perfect for industrial processes such as powder coating and painting. Thanks to its ability to cure at room temperature (or faster with heat), and its long shelf life without refrigeration, the LVO 160BF offers reliable performance and process flexibility.

Applications of 3M™ VHB™ LVO 160BF

  • Bonding parts prior to heat curing – powder or liquid paint

  • High-temp applications (up to 150°C continuous)

  • Panel-to-frame bonding in enclosures or signage

  • Stiffener-to-panel bonding

  • Attachment of decorative elements and trim

  • Outdoor sealing and bonding exposed to UV or moisture

  • Vibration-damping applications
