3M Adhesive Tape 4956P

Strong bonding solution for demanding applications

3M™ VHB™ Tape 4956 (Gray) is a high-performance double-sided adhesive tape with a thickness of 1.6 mm. It is based on a high-performance acrylic adhesive and was designed to replace traditional joining techniques such as riveting, welding, or screwing. This significantly simplifies assembly processes—without the need for drilling or grinding.

The high-tack adhesive reacts to pressure and immediately creates a strong, durable bond. The bond remains virtually invisible, making it ideal for applications where an attractive design is a priority. Its viscoelastic properties reduce vibrations and stresses while simultaneously sealing sensitive joints against moisture, water, and other environmental influences.

The flexible adhesive tape adapts to various surface structures—even on irregular materials or complex shapes. It adheres reliably to substrates with medium to high surface energy, such as metals, plastics, glass, or coated surfaces. It also maintains its performance over time on materials containing plasticizers, such as PVC.

In summary:

• Quick installation thanks to easy application and immediate adhesion
• Barely visible bond – ideal for visually demanding applications
• Reduces the need for mechanical fasteners and saves steps
• Provides reliable protection against moisture and weathering
• Suitable for a wide range of materials and complex surface shapes
