Excellent Adhesion to Various Materials
3M™ 468MP bonds well with:
- Aluminum
- Stainless steel
- Glass
- Acrylic
- ABS plastic
- Polycarbonate
- Polyester films
Thin and Invisible Bond Line
The carrier-free design provides:
- Low profile assembly
- Clean appearance
- Lightweight construction
- No visible adhesive carrier
Excellent Converting Performance
Suitable for:
- Rotary die-cutting
- Kiss cutting
- Sheet converting
- Laminating
Ideal for OEM adhesive components.
