The defining technological asset of the 3M GT7100 High Performance family is its exceptional stress-relaxation behavior and multi-substrate adhesion. Automotive exterior parts (such as weatherstrips, body side moldings, and radar brackets) are exposed to extreme aerodynamic drag, continuous highway vibrations, and severe expansions between different materials (CTE). The viscoelastic core of GT7104, GT7106, and GT7112 flows dynamically to distribute stress uniformly along the entire bond line, while providing an unyielding, weather-tight chemical seal that prevents water ingress, stone-chip delamination, and corrosion.
Key Features & B2B Benefits
For automotive trim factory directors, Tier-1 exterior module suppliers, and precision automotive die-cutters, the 3M GT7100 High Performance Series delivers a flawless assembly solution:
3M GT7100 High Performance Pedigree: Fully validated under global automotive OEM specifications, ensuring reliable adhesive performance on traditional clear coats, advanced low surface energy (LSE) paints, and chrome-plated plastics.
Calibrated Thickness Gradient (0.4mm to 1.2mm):
GT7104 (0.4mm): Optimized for ultra-flush, low-profile lettering, sharp emblems, and narrow garnish lines where clearance space is tight.
GT7106 (0.6mm): The versatile benchmark gauge for medium-profile emblems, sensors, and sleek interior/exterior trim bezels.
GT7112 (1.2mm): Engineered with maximum gap-filling and high strain-cushioning for heavy body side moldings, spoilers, and curved weatherstrips.
Viscoelastic Shear Strength: Absorbs severe dynamic shocks and high peel stresses, ensuring heavy exterior components remain pinned down at autobahn speeds.
All-Weather Automotive Resistance: Impervious to continuous UV radiation, automatic car wash detergents, gasoline/diesel splashes, and intense thermal cycles (from sub-zero winter temperatures to blistering hot hoods).

Application
Emblems, Badges, & Lettering (GT7104 / GT7106): High-precision die-cutting for model scripts, brand logos, chrome garnishes, and gloss-black trunk decals requiring a thin, completely flat, flush profile.
Body Side Moldings & Rocker Panels (GT7112): Structural attachment of heavy-duty lower door claddings, wheel arch extensions, and anti-rub protective side strips exposed to high physical impacts.
Sensors & Camera Bracket Mounts (GT7106): Securing internal Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) sensor mounts, blind-spot radar housing brackets, and parking camera seals onto bumpers.
Weatherstrips & Window Trim Arrays (GT7112): Fixing continuous EPDM/rubber window seals, pillar garnishes, sunroof wind deflectors, and roof ditch moldings requiring deep gap-filling capabilities.


Processing automotive-grade acrylic foam tapes requires high-tonnage precision converting to avoid edge-welding and core distortion. STK directly optimizes your automotive assembly line:
Burr-Free Clean-Edge Die-Cutting: Automotive automated assembly lines cannot tolerate edge-oozing or lint contamination. STK processes 3M™ GT7104, GT7106, and GT7112 via computerized rotary and flatbed die-cutting presses, delivering precision gaskets directly on easy-to-peel continuous liners.
Custom Extended Tabs & Pull-Handles: To drastically cut down cycle times on manual assembly lines, STK customizes die-cut parts with extended non-adhesive PET pull-tabs, allowing operators to strip release liners cleanly in seconds without affecting the glue face.
Precision Custom Slitting Rolls: Need precise ribbon widths for automatic tape-application robots? STK slits the GT7100 family down to narrow widths (e.g., 4mm, 6mm, 9mm, 12mm) with laser-straight roll faces, preventing unwind drag.
