Comparative advantages of foam bonding tapes vs. mechanical clamps

Mechanical clamps are often used to fix or join two pieces or surfaces together.

However, foam tapes offer significant advantages:

• Faster and easier to apply
• Reduce manpower and cost
• Non-conductive, provide better thermal and acoustic insulation
• Provide sealing as well as clamping
• No special tools or specific application abilities are required
• No holes are required: these provoke possible leaks, damage the object’s surface and create crevices and fissures which lead to corrosion
• Offer a clear and clean aspect
• Help insulate vibration and eliminate tension which is concentrated in one or various points
