Large Surface Lamination may be used to bond floor carpeting or the fabric of a headliner, as well as all the different layers of cushioning and fabric that go into the seats and interior door panels.

3M THIN DOUBLE SIDED TAPE HEADLINER WINDOWS
Panel-to-Frame attachment is used to bond and seal windshields and other fixed windows as well as for attaching panels to the frames of doors. 3M™ Dual Lock™ Reclosable Fasteners for access panels or replaceable sections.We have solutions designed for a range of functions and conditions, including: While they’re being driven automotive interiors are at reasonable temperatures but need to endure constant vibration, then while parked these same vehicles can go through extreme cycles of heat and cold. 3M solutions can help you bond lighter substrates to achieve weight reduction, and the aesthetics of sleek and stylish vehicles mainly require that bonds remain invisible. Once you learn more about the possibilities you can also search for 3M products or ask a question of one of our adhesives experts.Īs people demand more comfort and mileage from their cars the need for tape and adhesive solutions increases. You can investigate business impacts such as productivity, process and quality or see more about specific applications such as panels, components, sealing and more. Our Bonding Solutions for Metalworking Applications experience lets you further explore how adhesives and tapes can help you solve metalworking and metal fabrication challenges. Mounting and Trim Attachment applications involve applying smaller objects to larger surface, including frames, small signs, mirrors and white boards. Applications include laminations for doors, bonding foam and fabrics for seating and general fabrication of insulated, composite or sandwich panels. Large Surface Lamination involves two surfaces of similar size where the majority of the matching surface is covered with an adhesive. These can be insertion or overlap joints or some combination and include such functions as mortise and tenon furniture joints, thread locking and air or liquid ducting and piping.

Small Joint Assembly applications are often irregularly shaped joints with only a few inches that overlap. Some applications also involve Stiffener-to-Panel bonding in order to reinforce the panel. Panel-to-Frame applications involve bonding load-bearing panels to rigid frames in locations such as elevator walls, architectural panels and glazing, and large metal enclosures such as HVAC or electrical equipment. 3M has adhesives and tapes to address many different metalworking needs. While bare metal is generally easy to bond, it’s important to remember that any paint, dirt or oily coating will make bonding more difficult, and of course the second substrate may also be challenging to bond. Metalworking and metal fabrication includes everything from large items like machinery construction and architectural panels down to small items like sporting equipment and metal furniture. Sealing applications can involve using tapes and adhesives that also create a seal or applying sealants to exterior surfaces and joints to prevent water intrusion. Large Surface Lamination applications include seat construction, headliner installation and interior panel padding.

Some situations may also require Stiffener-to-Panel bonding, where a stiffener is used to reinforce a panel. Panel-to-Frame applications involve bonding walls and ceiling or roof panels to rigid frame structures.
