Double sided pet tape is a versatile tool that comes in handy for many uses including mounting, sealing and installing. It's often undetectable as it sits between two layers, holding them together temporarily or permanently, depending on the style of tape. Staples carries several sizes for multiple tasks from brands including Duck, Scotch and 3M.
Backed by Jiangsu Gelly Adhesive Material Technology Co., Ltd and our 30 years of adhesive expertise, our Double Sided Acrylic Foam Tape (Structural Glazing Series) is engineered for the most demanding architectural and construction applications. Specifically designed as a high-performance alternative to traditional mechanical fasteners and liquid silicone sealants, this 100% solid viscoelastic acrylic foam tape provides exceptional structural bonding strength for glass curtain walls, metal composite panels (ACP), and architectural cladding. Its unique cellular structure absorbs and dissipates dynamic stresses caused by wind loads, thermal expansion, and seismic movements, ensuring a permanent, invisible, and weatherproof seal.
Viscoelastic Stress Dissipation: The closed-cell acrylic foam core acts as a shock absorber, effectively distributing dynamic wind loads and accommodating the different thermal expansion coefficients between glass and aluminum/metal frames without cracking.
Extreme Weather & UV Resistance: Formulated with 100% solid acrylic adhesive (no rubber or PE carriers that degrade), it offers outstanding resistance to UV radiation, ozone, and extreme temperature fluctuations, preventing yellowing or embrittlement over decades of outdoor exposure.
Structural Bonding Strength: Delivers ultra-high peel and shear strength (up to 35-70 N/25mm), creating a permanent structural bond that replaces rivets, screws, and welding, resulting in a smooth, aesthetically pleasing exterior facade.
Waterproof & Sealing Performance: The closed-cell structure creates an immediate, permanent seal against water, moisture, and dust infiltration, eliminating the need for secondary liquid sealants in many glazing applications.
Invisible & Clean Aesthetics: The transparent nature of the tape ensures an invisible bond line, maximizing the optical clarity and modern design of frameless glass curtain walls and translucent signage.
Glass Curtain Wall Fixing: Structural glazing and bonding of glass panels to aluminum or steel mullions in commercial and residential high-rise buildings.
Architectural Cladding & ACP Panels: Stiffener bonding and mounting of Aluminum Composite Panels (ACP), metal trims, and decorative facades to building exteriors.
Translucent & Backlit Signage: Edge-bonding resin-filled glass, acrylic letters, and mounting backlit translucent signs where an invisible bond is critical.
Solar & Photovoltaic Modules: Mounting solar panel frames and bonding junction boxes, requiring long-term UV and weather resistance.

Our AdvantagesOur Advantages
A Strong and Established Tape Manufacturer
Yes, for many structural glazing and architectural cladding applications, our 100% solid acrylic foam tape (VHB-equivalent) is widely used to replace rivets, screws, and welding. Its viscoelastic properties allow it to absorb dynamic wind loads and accommodate the thermal expansion differences between glass and aluminum frames, preventing the stress-cracking that often occurs with rigid mechanical fasteners. It also provides a smooth, invisible exterior without drill holes.
Acrylic structural tapes are pressure-sensitive and viscoelastic. Upon initial application, they achieve approximately 50% of their ultimate strength. At room temperature (20°C-25°C), it takes 24 hours to reach 90% strength, and 72 hours to achieve 100% ultimate structural bond. Applying firm pressure (using a J-roller) during application is critical to ensure full contact with the substrate.
Surface preparation is strictly required for structural glazing. Both the glass and the aluminum/metal frame must be completely clean, dry, and free of dust, oil, or release agents. We recommend wiping the surfaces with a 50/50 mixture of Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) and water, or a dedicated architectural surface cleaner, and allowing it to dry completely before applying the tape. For low surface energy (LSE) plastics, a primer may be required.
Absolutely. Curtain wall systems often require specific tape widths (e.g., 12mm, 15mm, 25mm) to fit the exact dimensions of the aluminum mullions and transoms. We utilize high-precision slitting and die-cutting machines to supply the tape in exact slit rolls or custom die-cut pads with extended liner tabs for easy handling and automated assembly on the construction site.
