CRL V211212 3/8" x 1/2" Saint-Gobain V2100 Thermalbond Structural Glazing Spacer Tape

CRL V211212 3/8" x 1/2" Saint-Gobain V2100 Thermalbond Structural Glazing Spacer Tape

C.R. Laurence V211212 3/8" x 1/2" Saint-Gobain/Norton V2100 Thermalbond Structural Glazing Spacer Tape is an essential component for both field and shop glazing applications. This semi-rigid foam tape features an aggressive pressure-sensitive adhesive, making it a superb spacer for two and four-sided structural silicone glazing systems. Its black color and high-density construction provide both durability and aesthetic appeal. Designed for compatibility with all tested commercial silicone sealants, the V2100 tape ensures optimal joint dimension control. Its unique open cell structure allows air and moisture to reach the silicone, facilitating proper curing while its low conductivity minimizes heat transfer, effectively reducing condensation on glass, doors, and metal systems. This versatile tape can be utilized for a variety of materials, including glass, metal, stone, and plastic panels, making it perfect for applications such as curtain walls, storefronts, skylights, and more. With a density of 31 lbs./cu.ft. and a temperature range from -40°F to 180°F, it stands up to a wide array of environmental conditions. Each roll measures 25 ft. in length, with a thickness of 3/8 in. and a width of 1/2 in. The V2100 tape is stocked in a convenient architectural black finish, ensuring seamless integration into your projects.

CRL Saint-Gobain/Norton V2100 Thermalbond® Tape is a semi-rigid foam tape with an aggressive pressure-sensitive adhesive. This high density tape has a specially formulated cellular substrate, and is used as a spacer for joint dimension control in structural silicone glazing systems. It is the most widely used spacer tape for structural silicone systems.


V2100 has proven to be compatible with all commercial silicone sealants used for structural glazing. It has a highly aggressive adhesive on both sides, and a semi-rigid, open cell structure that maintains the required spacing, and allows air and moisture to reach the silicone to allow optimum curing. Its low conductivity reduces heat transfer and inhibits condensation on windows, doors, and metal systems.

V2100 Tape is designed as a spacer for glass, metal, stone, mineral cement, and plastic panels in structural silicone glazing systems. This includes: two and four sided structural silicone glazing of curtain walls, storefronts, skylights and windows; to temporarily secure glazing or panels to framework in shop fabrication of unitized structural silicone glazing and cladding systems; to temporarily secure lightweight veneers to substrates while permanent structural silicone adhesives are curing; as a thermal break to reduce the conduction of heat; to provide an even sight line in vision areas. It is stocked only in an architectural black finish (other colors available on special order), and in nine stock sizes. Other sizes are also available on special order.

Limitations: Thermalbond® V2100 is a SPACER material and not intended to be a structural component. The adhesive properties cannot be used as part of the permanent fastening system or in any way to reduce the amount of silicone adhesive recommended by the silicone manufacturer. Contact surfaces must be thoroughly cleaned. Position V2100 carefully, as it cannot be repositioned after initial contact. With some surfaces, it may be necessary to prime the surface with Norton Tite-R-Bond Adhesion Promoter.
