Demo summary • 3M™ Damping Foil Tape 2552 is applied to steel plates at 5%, 10%, and 15% surface coverage. • Each plate is tapped to compare the observed change in ringing noise versus an untreated baseline. • The on-screen dB bars are representative visual indicators only, not measured decibel readings. Product highlights • Designed to control resonant vibration from 32°F to 140°F, or 0°C to 60°C. • Survivability range: -25°F to 175°F, or -32°C to 80°C. • Helps absorb and dissipate vibration, supporting noise and fatigue reduction. • Converts vibration to negligible heat that readily dissipates. • Pressure sensitive adhesive supports ease of application, while the liner enables die-cutting for specific part geometries. Observed results • In this demo, the untreated steel plate produces the strongest ringing noise. • The taped samples show a noticeable reduction in emitted noise. • Higher tape coverage shows stronger observed damping in the representative visual comparison. • 3M™ Damping Foil Tape 2552 reduces vibrations significantly in the demonstrated setup. Why it matters • Designed to help reduce structure-borne noise in metal and plastic panels. • Effective damping with as little as 10% surface coverage can help teams address vibration without covering the full part. • Relevant for applications such as appliance panels, washing machines, dryer drums, dishwashers, car doors, aircraft fuselage areas, HVAC equipment, and transportation assemblies. • Reduced vibration can help lower wear and tear on parts and reduce the risk of loosening or displacement.
