tesa® ACXplus 73311 – Black Acrylic Foam Tape (1100 μm)

High-Strength Bonding for Powder-Coated and Mixed-Material Assemblies

Product Overview

tesa® ACXplus 73311 is a high-performance, double-sided acrylic foam tape engineered for demanding bonding applications. With its 1100 μm black conformable acrylic core and modified acrylic adhesive, it delivers strong, durable bonds across a wide variety of substrates. It is particularly well suited to powder-coated surfaces, as well as glass and many plastic materials, enabling sleek, clean designs without the need for mechanical fasteners. Its viscoelastic properties provide excellent stress dissipation and gap filling, even on irregular surfaces, making it ideal for permanent bonding where both reliability and aesthetics are critical.

Key Features & Benefits

• High-strength, permanent bonding solution with long-term durability.
• Viscoelastic acrylic foam core for excellent conformability and stress dissipation.
• Bonds well to high, medium, and low surface energy materials, including powder-coated surfaces, metals, plastics, and glass.
