Wire Harness

As vehicles continue to modernize at a rapid pace, more and more electrical components such as advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), Bluetooth and reversing cameras are being integrated into interiors.

The growth of these features presents a new set of engineering challenges. Electrification requires numerous and complex wiring systems and cable harnesses that need to be routed through tight spaces and protected from external influences through the lifetime of the vehicle.

Avery Dennison’s pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes are used to produce wrapping tapes and self-closing sleeving by many leading automotive manufacturers.

These are superior solutions to mechanical fasteners which have been the go-to solution for wire harnesses for many years – today, the capabilities of modern adhesive technology are making tapes an attractive alternative.
