3M Medical Tapes for Converting: Providing Innovative Solutions in Medical Industry
3M™ Adhesive Transfer Tapes
3M™ Adhesive Transfer Tapes are pressure-sensitive adhesives coated on a liner, offering excellent bonding to smooth surfaces. They are commonly used in medical device assembly and skin contact applications due to their reliable adhesion and ease of use.
3M™ Double Coated Foam Tapes
3M™ Double Coated Foam Tapes feature foam carriers that provide cushioning and vibration damping. They are ideal for securing components within medical devices, especially on uneven or textured surfaces.
3M™ VHB™ Tapes
3M™ VHB Tapes are strong, double-sided acrylic foam tapes. They are becoming increasingly widely used in the aerospace and automotive industries because they save component weight and fuel consumption. Moreover, by offering better panel adhesion rather than just structural adhesive, they enable high-strength bonding to take the place of conventional mechanical fasteners.
3M™ Reclosable Fasteners
3M Reclosable Fasteners, including Scotchmate and Dual Lock, provide a strong but removable bond. These fasteners are frequently found in medical devices that must be opened and closed repeatedly, such as blood pressure monitors, wearable technology, or parts that are simple to replace or adjust.
3M™ Double Sided Tapes
Strong double-sided stickiness and a range of backing materials make 3M Double-Sided Tapes adaptable to several applications. To ensure a stable grip in both temporary and permanent applications, such as surgical drapes or medical device assembly, they are frequently employed in medical applications to bond materials including plastic, metal, and foam.
3M™ Double Coated Tapes
These are held together with adhesive on both sides of a carrier material and have excellent adhesion to varied surfaces. Designed for medical applications that demand the bonding of dissimilar materials with consistency and reliability to maintain performance, these tapes are suitable for constructing a variety of medical devices.
