Roof Ditch Clips with 3M™ Structural Bonding Tape

Roof Ditch Clips with 3M™ Structural Bonding Tape are designed for attaching roof ditch clips to vehicle bodies and painted surfaces. Ready-to-use, pre-taped components help improve process efficiency during application to the windshield. With these pre-taped retention clips, additional adhesive or tape application may not be necessary. The pressure-sensitive adhesive allows for immediate clip fixturing, while the foam tape and adhesive are made from epoxy-modified acrylic material for reliable adhesion and durability. The tape is heat-cured for a secure bond, eliminating the need for stamping holes or forming upturned flanges in sheet metal.

Designed to help improve automotive plant productivity, Roof Ditch Clips with 3M™ Structural Bonding Tape feature plastic or metal roof ditch clips pre-taped and ready for application to windshields. This combination of tape and roof ditch clip eliminates the need to apply additional adhesive or tape to the clip before application. The tape forms a reliable bond which may help minimize consumer-related warranty issues. 3M™ Structural Bonding Tape 9259, featured on this product, is a white 1 mm thick epoxy-modified acrylic foam tape formulated for bonding metal or plastic to e-coat, primer or sealer. The tape features a pressure-sensitive adhesive which allows for immediate attachment and fixturing, helping to reduce common alignment problems.
