AFTC® Double Sided Bonding Tape 5308
AFTC 5308 is a double-sided, high-performance acrylic adhesive tape designed for bonding high- and medium-energy surfaces, as well as glass and transparent plastics where a clear, durable bond is essential.
This highly transparent bonding tape provides exceptional clarity without the risk of stress corrosion, making it ideal for aesthetic applications and long-term performance in demanding environments.
Key Features and Benefits
High Transparency: Perfect for glass and clear plastics where visual appearance is important.
Excellent Conformability: Bonds thin, structured, and uneven materials across the full surface — tension-free.
Thermal Expansion Absorption: Accommodates differing expansion rates between bonded materials.
High Impact Resistance: Maintains strength and performance even at temperatures below 0°C.
Durability: Exceptional resistance to weathering, aging, UV exposure, and yellowing.
Chemical and Plasticiser Resistance: Provides long-term bond stability in challenging conditions.
Additional Benefits: Vibration dampening and excellent sealing properties for a lasting, reliable bond.
Recommended Applications
AFTC 5308 is ideally suited for:
Bonding glass and transparent plastics
Decorative and aesthetic panel bonding
Signage, display, and lighting applications
High-performance assemblies requiring long-term clarity and durability
Application Guidelines
To ensure a strong and lasting bond, proper surface preparation is essential:
Clean the surface – Remove dust, oils, and contaminants.
Abrade if necessary – Improves adhesion on low-energy surfaces.
Apply primer – Where required for optimal bond strength.
Apply consistent pressure – Promotes uniform contact between surfaces.
Maintain a clean work area – Free from dust and airborne particles.
Important: Apply the tape at a minimum temperature of 15°C for best results. Avoid applying stress or tension to the bond during application.
Performance You Can Trust
