Highlights

Dead soft aluminum foil is designed to damp vibrations in panels and supports
Controls resonant vibrations through temperatures ranging from -25°F/-32°C to 175°F/80°C with peak damping from 32°F/0°C to 140°F/60°C
Viscoelastic acrylic polymer adhesive is optimized to convert vibrational energy to negligible heat that readily dissipates
Withstands exposure to weathering, moisture and UV
Meets flame retardancy requirements of F.A.R. 25.853(a) and can pass ASTM E-162 and ASTM-E 662 for flammability and smoke generation
Linered for die-cutting applications

3M™ Damping Foil Tape 2552 is constructed of a dead soft aluminum foil constraining layer and coated with a pressure sensitive, viscoelastic acrylic polymer adhesive. This unique construction provides the ability to control resonant vibrations in a variety of applications and across a broad spectrum of temperatures.

Absorbs and Dissipates Resonant Vibration
3M™ Damping Foil Tape 2552 (PDF, 112 Kb) is an aluminum foil backed anti-vibration tape. It is designed to reduce structure-borne noise and fatigue in metal and composite panels and support structures. With a viscoelastic acrylic polymer adhesive this tape is easy to apply and it adheres well to metal. It can achieve effective damping with as little as 20% surface coverage. This durable tape will resist moisture, weather, UV degradation and flame. It is a long aging tape designed to specifically perform in a wide variety of temperatures (-25°F/-32°C to 175°F/80°C) with peak damping from 32°F/0°C to 140°F/60°C. The linered construction provides the ability to die cut this product. 3M™ Damping Foil Tape 2552 meets the requirements of F.A.R. 25.853(a) and can pass ASTM E-162 and ASTM-E 662 for flammability and smoke generation.
