About single sided foam tapes

A single sided foam is one which has an adhesive applied to just one side. They are frequently used for gasketing, sealing, cushioning, gap filling and insulation in a number of markets such as automotive, electronics and general industrial.

Foam tapes are available in various thicknesses, open or closed cell, with a variety of adhesive types. Electrically conductive foam tapes are also available.

Our range of Neoprene, PE, PU and PVC foam tapes can be laminated with a double sided tape or a transfer adhesive of your choice and die-cut into convenient shapes and sizes.

Single sided foam tape characteristics:

Conformable/flexible

Closed/open cell

Resistant to solvents and high temperatures

Extremely resilient to mechanical fatigue

Excellent ageing

Range of colours

Wide thickness range

Thermally conductive

Resistant to UV light

Excellent shock absorption

Excellent compression set and creep resistance

Available with low tack adhesive for temporary protection

Single sided foam applications include:

Water, air, dust and draught sealing

Noise, vibration and harshness applications in automotive markets

Filter gasketing

Vibration isolators in speaker systems and televisions

LCD dust seals in electronic appliances

Battery pack anti-rattle pads

Sound absorption and vibration dampening in white goods

Environmental sealing in outdoor lighting
