The GPH series of VHB tapes from 3M represents a modern alternative to traditional joining methods such as drilling, screwing, or riveting.
The name VHB (Very High Bond) refers to tapes with extremely high adhesion that create permanent and strong bonds even between different materials. The GPH – General Purpose High Temperature series is designed as a universal solution for a wide range of applications, including where materials are exposed to higher temperatures or demanding conditions.
3M VHB GPH tapes use advanced acrylate adhesive, which ensures high bond strength, excellent temperature resistance (short-term up to 230 °C) and at the same time excellent adhesion to various surfaces – from metals and glass to plastics and painted materials. Thanks to its foam construction, the tape also dampens vibrations, compensates for thermal expansion, and evens out surface irregularities, making it an ideal choice for durable and aesthetically clean joints.
The GPH series is designed for versatile use in industrial manufacturing, construction, transport, electrical engineering, as well as in interior and exterior installations. The tapes are used for bonding metal panels, plastic parts, glass structures, stainless steel covers, aluminum profiles, or composite materials. Thanks to a clean and permanent bond, they replace traditional mechanical fasteners and enable an elegant, strong, and aesthetic solution without the need for surface modifications.
Tapes from the 3M VHB GPH series offer a combination of high strength, flexibility, and durability.
They are capable of withstanding UV radiation, moisture, chemicals, and material aging, which guarantees their long service life. Installation is quick and clean – with no drying time and no tools required. The joint is immediately functional, strong, and aesthetically unobtrusive.The GPH category of the 3M VHB universal tape series represents a top-tier solution for professionals who require a bond with high strength, temperature resistance, and reliability. These tapes combine technological sophistication, universal applicability, and modern bonding design – an ideal choice for both structural and aesthetically demanding applications.
