Eliminates the need for screws or rivets, allowing panels to maintain a clean and seamless architectural appearance.
TWEHA Tape
Double-sided foam tape for initial fixation and controlled adhesive bead thickness
TWEHA Tape is a highly flexible, double-sided self-adhesive foam tape, specially developed for use as an integral component of TWEHA Bonding Systems for rainscreen and ventilated façade cladding.
With a standard thickness of 3 mm and width of 12 mm, TWEHA Tape provides the initial fixation of the façade panel during installation and, at the same time, acts as a spacer to ensure the minimum required adhesive bead thickness of 3 mm.
Its high flexibility allows the tape to adapt to minor surface irregularities while providing reliable positioning of the panel during installation. TWEHA Tape also prevents absorption and the ingress of moisture and is designed to be used in combination with the appropriate TWEHA adhesive and surface-preparation products.
TWEHA Tape must be applied to a dry, clean, dust-free and grease-free substrate. Where TWEHA Cleaner+ or TWEHA WoodProtect is required, these products must be allowed to dry completely before the tape is applied.
Within the TWEHA Bonding System, the adhesive bead is applied approximately 10 mm alongside the TWEHA Tape in an uninterrupted V-shaped bead. After removal of the protective liner, the façade panel is positioned and pressed firmly until full contact with the tape is achieved.
Always refer to the applicable TWEHA Technical Data Sheet and Instructions for Use for the complete application procedure.

TWEHA Tape provides several important functions within the TWEHA Bonding System:
01
Double-Sided Foam Tape
Specifically designed for use in TWEHA Bonding Systems on aluminium and prepared wooden supporting structures.
02
Immediate Panel Fixation
Provides immediate initial fixation and allows accurate positioning of façade panels.
03
Controlled Adhesive Joint
Maintains the required minimum adhesive bead thickness of 3 mm for consistent and controlled joint geometry.
04
Highly Flexible
Adapts effectively to minor irregularities in the supporting surface.
05
Fast and Protective Application
Easy and quick to apply while helping to prevent moisture absorption and ingress.
TWEHA Tape is particularly suitable for:
TWEHA Tape is particularly suitable for the initial fixation of façade panels during adhesive installation, and for use within TWEHA bonded rainscreen façade systems and ventilated façade constructions. It maintains the required 3 mm adhesive bead thickness while positioning façade panels during installation, and compensates for minor irregularities in the supporting surface. It can be applied on aluminum supporting profiles as well as appropriately prepared wooden supporting structures, and is used in combination with TWEHA PanelMate, StoneMate, GlassMate and MetalMate — making it suited to professional façade applications where a controlled and consistent adhesive joint is required.

TWEHA Tape provides initial panel fixation and controls the required adhesive layer thickness during installation.
Standard TWEHA Tape is 3 mm thick, maintaining the nominal 3 mm adhesive thickness after panel positioning.
The standard size is 3 mm × 12 mm, supplied on 25 metre rolls; other sizes may be available on request.
No. TWEHA Tape is non-structural; permanent façade loads are transferred through the fully cured adhesive.
Remove the liner only after applying the adhesive bead and immediately before positioning the façade panel.
More efficient, more economical
Compared to traditional mechanical fixation systems, TWEHA Bonding Systems can reduce installation costs by up to 40%.
Faster installation, fewer components, and no visible fixings result in both economic and aesthetic advantages.
