3M Scotch Mount Extreme Double-Sided Mounting Tape, 13.6 kg Load Capacity, 1.52 m Length

Complete tough installation jobs with ease using 3M Scotch Mount Extreme Double-Sided Tape , designed to provide a strong, permanent bond without the need for nails, screws, or mounting tools.

The tape contains 3M's high-strength industrial adhesive with a flexible foam backing that allows it to conform to surfaces and form a strong bond upon pressure. Suitable for indoor and outdoor use, it is weather-resistant for long-lasting adhesion.

A full roll can support up to 30 pounds (approximately 13.6 kg ) when used correctly on a suitable, clean, and dry surface. The company explains that each pound requires approximately two inches of tape; therefore, the actual load-bearing capacity depends on the tape length, the type of surface, and how the weight is distributed.

It is a practical option for mounting signs, decorations, organizers, accessories, home and office items, and some car accessories on suitable surfaces, while maintaining a tidy appearance without exposed screw heads.
