3M Double Sided Adhesive Tape 5952F, 19 mm x 3 m x 1.1 mm, Black | Simple Permanent Bonding, Indoor + Outdoor, Various Substrates, Double Coated Tape

Great product. Have used it to attached a piece of wood to PVC facia on the end of my roof to put a security camera and solar panel to power it on. Seems rock solid and no issue holding the weight. Feels more secure than if I'd screwed the items directly to the facia.

At first, I thought it could not possibly be for industrial use as advertised. The tape isn't particularly tacky. It is also quite thick. Tweezers would be useful for removing the second protective tape or trimming long nails. Once applied, there is a short bit of time to remove and replace but it starts to cure quickly. I checked it, with doubt after 24 hours and pleased to discover that it really does stick hard and fast.

This is a very good tape. Sticks to most anything and stays stuck. You can however use a razor blade when it is time to remove it. The only issue I have is getting the plastic backing off the second side. Everything I try has differing results. I probably need to find a YouTube video to explain. It was quoted as 2-3 day delivery but it arrived next day. Very happy with the product and service

The product seems to be in good quality, I use it on my car number plate. Losing one star is due to the adhesion not hold when there is curve between the item. I have cleaned the area with isopropyl and wipe it clean before putting it on but the edge of the plate started to show lossing adhesion which might need to redo in the future. For flat surface, it sticks without problem. But still, I would recommend this product and will definitely purchase again if needed

This tape’s built for serious bonding—VHB (Very High Bond) foam with a filmic liner that grips hard-to-stick surfaces like powder-coated metals, plastics, and painted panels. Geared toward van mods, signage, dash cams, tool mounts, or site gear where screws aren’t ideal. 1.1mm thickness gives shock absorption and fills minor gaps. Sticks firm with pressure—no heat gun needed. Waterproof, UV-resistant, and holds up in UK weather. Once it’s on, it’s permanent—removal may lift paint or leave residue. Ideal for clean installs where you want a flush, screw-free finish. Works well on uneven surfaces too. Best used with surface prep—wipe down with isopropyl alcohol and apply with firm pressure for 30+ seconds. 👍 Pros ✅ Bonds to powder-coated, painted, and low-energy surfaces ✅ Heavy-duty grip—industrial strength ✅ Shock-absorbing foam—dampens vibration ✅ Weatherproof—UV and moisture resistant ✅ Clean finish—no screws or visible fixings 👎 Cons ❌ Permanent bond—removal can damage surface ❌ No dispenser—cut manually ❌ One-shot stick—no repositioning

Extremely sticky tape, which we used to securely affix a wooden magnetic knife rack to a tiled wall, and have had no issues whatsoever. Very easy to use, just peel and stick. The tape is quite thick and feels like it will hold up well even in a kitchen environment with lots of moisture around. Exactly what we needed!

Used as intended, 3M VHB 5952 is impressively strong—but it’s also less forgiving than the listing makes it sound, and for my use case it ended up being a “great product, tricky experience,” which is why I’m landing at 3 stars instead of 5. I bought the 3M VHB 5952 roll (black, 19 mm × 3 m 19mm×3m) for “simple permanent bonding” jobs: mounting small accessories, attaching brackets, and tidying up a few DIY projects where I didn’t want screws or visible hardware. I’ve used VHB-style tapes before, so I expected strong adhesion. What I didn’t fully appreciate (and what I think many buyers won’t either) is how sensitive the results are to surface prep, pressure, temperature, and the fact that “permanent” really means “you may damage things if you ever need to remove it.” The good: once it’s truly bonded, it’s seriously strong When everything goes right—clean surfaces, firm pressure, reasonable temperature, and enough cure time—this tape bonds extremely well. It has that classic VHB behavior where it feels “pretty stuck” at first, then becomes significantly more secure as time passes. After letting it sit, the hold feels like it transitions from tape to something closer to a structural bond. It’s also nice that it’s black, which can look cleaner than gray or white foam tape when you’re mounting something on dark materials. The width ( 19 mm 19mm) is a useful middle ground: wide enough for decent contact area without being awkward to fit on small parts. The not-so-good: “simple” is only true if your setup is ideal The listing implies this is a straightforward peel-and-stick solution. In practice, I found it to be “simple” only under ideal conditions. The tape has a learning curve if you’re using it for anything beyond a perfectly flat, clean, non-porous surface. Here’s what tripped me up: Surface prep is not optional. Anything like dust, skin oils, slight residue, or a textured/powdery finish can drop performance a lot. “Looks clean” isn’t the same as “clean enough.” Pressure matters more than people expect. You don’t just stick it on—you really need firm, even pressure to wet out the adhesive into the surface. If you just press lightly with fingers, the initial tack can feel okay, but the long-term bond can be disappointing. Cure time is real. If you load it immediately, you may think the tape “failed,” when in reality it just hadn’t developed full strength yet. I’m not saying these requirements are unreasonable for industrial-grade bonding tape; I’m saying the typical Amazon buyer may not realize how carefully they need to treat it to get the advertised performance. Mixed results depending on the material This is where my rating really lands. On some surfaces, it was excellent. On others, it was inconsistent unless I went above and beyond with prep and pressure. For example, smooth painted metal and some plastics worked well once prepped properly. On certain textured plastics or slightly rough coatings, I got a bond that felt strong at first but didn’t inspire confidence after a couple days of temperature changes and normal handling. That inconsistency is frustrating because you can’t always tell right away whether it’s a “forever bond” or a “this might peel later” bond—especially if the item you’re mounting doesn’t fail until it’s already holding something you care about. Removal: can be messy, and can damage finishes The product description highlights “permanent bonding,” and it delivers on that—sometimes a little too well. If you ever need to remove what you mounted, be prepared for at least one of these outcomes: The tape stretches and tears, leaving chunks of adhesive behind The surface finish pulls up (paint, coating, veneer, etc.) You end up spending a long time working it off with heat, careful peeling, and cleanup For something like a car trim piece, a mounted accessory, or anything with a finish you don’t want to risk, this matters. The tape can be a fantastic solution if you’re sure about placement and truly want permanent. If you’re experimenting, repositioning, or prototyping, it’s not a friendly choice. The liner and handling: doable, but not my favorite The “filmic liner” does its job, but I still found the tape somewhat annoying to work with on small, precise placements. If you’re cutting short pieces, you need a clean cut and some patience to get the liner started without stretching or contaminating the adhesive. Because it’s a foam tape, it can also compress a bit. That’s great for conforming to minor surface irregularities, but it also means alignment matters. If you press it down crooked and commit pressure, “fixing it” is not simple. When I think this tape makes sense I’d recommend it (with caveats) for: Mounting items on smooth, clean, non-porous surfaces Jobs where you can apply firm pressure evenly Cases where you can let it cure before applying load Situations where you truly want a near-permanent bond When I’d choose something else I’d look for alternatives if: You need repositionability or plan to remove it later You’re bonding to unknown plastics, dusty coatings, or textured surfaces The bond failure would cause damage (expensive object, safety issue) You can’t clamp/press it properly during install Why 3 stars This tape is clearly high quality, and I can see why people love VHB when it’s used correctly. But for “simple permanent bonding,” it’s not as plug-and-play as the product title suggests, and the penalty for getting it wrong is either failure later or a painful removal process. For experienced users who know the prep steps and accept the permanence, it can be 5 stars. For the average buyer expecting easy mounting tape, I think it lands closer to the middle.

I don’t normally write reviews but I felt I needed to share my experience. About six months go, I bought a Ring doorbell and used their double sided tape to stick to my door. Everything went well until the first hot spell. The sun shines directly onto my front door. I heard a bang outside and was shocked to see it was my door bell. This happened a few times and after reading the reviews I purchased theVHB 3M doubled sided tape. Since using this tape my door bell has stay in situ defying the extraordinary heatwaves that we have experienced.

Ho provato e acquistato diversi nastri 3M nel corso degli anni , alcuni erano più o meno validi , altri non avevano nulla a che fare con i 3M e altri ancora non erano per nulla efficaci , tra le varie alternative presenti sul mercato quest'ultimo è uno dei migliori in commercio, in quanto mantiene veramente le promesse nel senso che svolge egregiamente il suo lavoro , ha una tenuta e una resistenza eccezionale proprio come dovrebbe essere un vero nastro 3M , si riesce a lavorare e a posizionarlo ovunque si ha necessità, attacca bene e aderisce benissimo, importante è che lo si lasci almeno per 24 ore attaccato prima di metterlo all'opera, io l'ho usato per attaccare delle mensole al muro non potendo forare, una volta pulita la superficie e messo le mensole ho aspettato 24 ore prima di appoggiare gli oggetti alle mensole , dopo 24 ore ho inserito sulle mensole degli oggetti da collezione per un peso complessivo di circa 7 kg , ad oggi dopo circa 20 giorni non si è minimamente mosso nè perso aderenza , insomma incredibile ma anche perché non si è minimamente spostato, unica pecca è che la parte finale è attaccata direttamente sul cartoncino per cui sostanzialmente si perde tutta la parte finale , bastava usare una pellicola sul cartoncino in modo da poterlo usare tutto , per cui considerate che 30-40 cm di nastro si perde ma considerando che funziona è un piccolo compromesso da fare , in ogni caso lo consiglio in quanto mantiene quello che promette. Spero di esservi stato utile. 👋

J’ai utilisé ces bandes 3M VHB pour fixer divers objets dans mon studio (supports muraux, petits accessoires vidéo, boîtiers, etc.), et le résultat est vraiment impressionnant. L’adhérence est ultra puissante, à tel point qu’il faut bien réfléchir avant de coller quoi que ce soit — une fois en place, ça ne bouge plus. Elles tiennent parfaitement sur les surfaces lisses comme le métal, le plastique ou le verre. Même avec un peu de poids, ça ne faiblit pas. J’apprécie aussi le fait qu’elles remplacent aisément les vis ou les clous pour les petites installations. C’est propre, rapide et sans dégâts. Petit conseil : bien nettoyer les surfaces avant d’appliquer, et laisser reposer quelques heures pour une adhérence optimale. En résumé : un produit fiable, costaud, idéal pour les fixations durables sans perçage. J’en rachèterai sans hésiter.

De base j’avais dis qu’il ne fonctionnait pas bien mais c’était car je ne savais pas l’utiliser. Pour que l’adhésion soit optimale vous devez dans un premier temps bien nettoyer la surface de travail et ensuite je recommande vivement de bien chauffer avec un sèche-cheveux ou un décapeur thermique l’adhésif, à ce moment là il fonctionnera très bien même trop bien ! Je l’ai utilisé pour fixer des protections de réservoir de moto et même avec la canicule et la chaleur de la moto ils ne bougent plus du tout !

Tape good product

Ich habe dieses doppelseitige Klebeband mittlerweile für die unterschiedlichsten Dinge verwendet und bin wirklich sehr zufrieden. Egal ob Kunststoff, Holz, Metall oder andere Materialien – bisher hat alles zuverlässig gehalten. Die Klebekraft ist wirklich stark und genau das, was man sich von gutem doppelseitigem Klebeband wünscht. Besonders praktisch finde ich, dass man es für viele kleine Alltagslösungen nutzen kann, ohne direkt bohren oder schrauben zu müssen. Einfach zuschneiden, aufkleben und festdrücken – funktioniert super. Einen kleinen „Kritikpunkt“ gibt es allerdings, wobei das eigentlich eher ein allgemeines Thema bei doppelseitigem Klebeband ist: Das Abfummeln der zweiten Schutzfolie kann manchmal etwas nervig sein. Da dürfte gerne irgendwann mal jemand etwas Praktischeres erfinden An der eigentlichen Funktion gibt es aber absolut nichts auszusetzen. ➕ Positiv: Sehr starke Klebekraft Hält auf unterschiedlichsten Materialien Einfach anzuwenden Vielseitig einsetzbar ➖ Kleinigkeit: Schutzfolie teilweise etwas fummelig zu entfernen Fazit: Macht genau das, was es soll – und das richtig gut. Für mich ein zuverlässiges doppelseitiges Klebeband, das ich jederzeit wieder kaufen würde. Klare 5 Sterne
