Avery Dennison provides a variety of pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes for the aerospace industry. These versatile and lightweight solutions offer durability even in demanding aerospace environments, and have applications including bonding, vibration and masking.
Aerospace industry engineering requirements for materials are typically quite demanding. This is understandable, as those materials can have a significant effect on passenger comfort.
Bonding solutions must pass flammability requirements and resist a wide spectrum of temperatures. They must also be as light as possible to help the aircraft meet fuel consumption targets. Avery Dennison tapes for aerospace meet or exceed these requirements.
Common applications include:
Bonding of flexible plastic films to various rigid surfaces, including aluminum, painted surfaces and substrates with differing surface energies.
Bonding of carpeting to interior surfaces. Tapes allow easy removal of carpeting during aircraft refurbishment.
Bonding and seaming of thermal and acoustical insulation materials.
Encapsulation of wire harnesses to protect from abrasion and high temperatures and limit movement.
FT 1143 is a 3.1 mil transfer tape with a general purpose plasticizer resistant acrylic adhesive and a polyester liner. The adhesive bonds very well to vinyl, rubber, and mildly plasticized materials as well as foam and the liner.
HPA 1905 is a 4.9 mil transfer tape with a high performance acrylic adhesive and a polyester release liner. It bonds well to medium and high surface energy plastics and metals.
FT 1165 is a single-liner transfer tape of Flame Tough™ Acrylic, recommended for applications with flame retardant requirements.
