Looking thru one of the many trade journals I get (being a machine designer) and found an advert. for this tape.... Could be used for the alum sides at the...

Pardon my ignorance, but which of those products is more suited to Locost application? The "Transfer" tape or the "Foam" tape. I don't know what "transfer...
Hi dave, I'm not quite there yet but was already planning to use that tape ot secure the alumninum to my chassis. I'm not sure if it would replace all of the...
From yet another machine/mechanical product designer, I think the adhesive transfer tape will give a more rigid structure. McMaster- Carr has the foam tape at...
Whoah! You're telling me that I can attach my Ali floor and side panels to the frame with this tape stuff and forgo any and all other mechanical fasteners!?...

I think you have the Idea. As long as it will, in fact, work like that. I intend to find out. ... From: Steve Graber Sent: Thursday, May 01, 2003 1:35 PM To:...
My thanks goes out to Dave B. for suggesting the 3M VHB tape. I had heard about structural bonding tapes, but never thought that mere mortals like myself could...
Now if we could super-glue steel tube joints... This stuff looks fantastic. My only fear would be a fender-bender, but I suppose the aluminum could be cut and...
I received a sample of the tape last year. It was ~1" long with 2" pieces of mylar on the adhesive surfaces. We tried to pull it apart but it would not give,...
Heh, I think we have one of those tensile machines at work lol. Mike L ... From: Martyn Eastwood To: Locost_North_America@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, May...
I've also played with those sample tapes Martyn mentions. Pretty clever marketing. I pretty sure they chose the size and slick surface of the pull tabs to...
Well, being a non-engineer, or lets say an engineer wannabe heh, I would guess if you were fastening aluminum sides or the like it would hold up even better...
Wayne, I tried to send you some pics of the Mumford linkage yesterday to your hotmail account. It was returned twice. Do you have another address I could...
I have used the VHB tape, both the foam (.020" and .030") as well as the "thin" version. Basically as others have said it sticks very well. The foam will tear...
And I, who am just a lurker and not close to starting a build, have designed tension testing machines. Not laboratory instruments, but proof testers for chain...
I used stainless rivets/liquid nails between the ally and frame on my first car and it worked great, got the idea from Walt Zettner. Provides extra adhesion...
You know, someone else sent me something yesterday and the same thing happened. I don't know what is going on. But I recieved a picture file earilier today...
Does anyone have any thoughts on using tape and rivets,maby not so many for both the insulating quality and some regidity? ... From: M. Larsen Sent: Thursday,...
I'd run tests to be sure the thinner in the paint won't degrade the sticky part. If that proves to be a problem just mask off the chassis and apply the...
I'm going to be in Santa Cruz California all next week. I'll actually be there for a funeral on the 10th, but I may have some free time during the week before....
Thanks Steve. Why pay for fiberglass when Automotive Restorations in Stratford, Conn. will sell you most of an Eleven in alloy for $30K? Or maybe you want a S1...
Paul, Did any car imported into NA use the 20 valve or is this a JDM import? IIRC your issue with the DMV is the origin of you 16 valve. I sure Dr. Hess can...
