What does UL 94 V0 approved mean?
UL 94 is the standard classification used for the flammability of plastic materials, and V0 is the highest of its vertical burn ratings. A material classified V0 is the most demanding category in that scale.
Mr.Bond® 4500 FLR is UL 94 V0 approved. For a specifier, that matters because a flame rating on a bonding tape is usually a requirement written into the assembly specification rather than a preference, and it has to be evidenced on every material in the build.
FLR in the product name stands for flame retardant. Where the flame-rated material needs to be a thermal interface rather than a bonding tape, Mr.Bond® thermal pads are also UL 94V0 approved. For what the test measures, how V-0 differs from V-1 and V-2, and why flame-retardant grade is not the same claim as a UL 94 classification, see what UL 94 V-0 means on a tape.
Why choose a fire-proof double-sided tissue tape?
Because most bonding tapes force a choice. A tape with excellent adhesion often has no flame rating; a flame-rated material is often not a bonding tape at all.
4500 FLR is engineered for applications that demand both: strong, reliable bonding and proven flame resistance. It is a double-sided tissue tape, so it keeps the qualities of that family, a thin bond line, adhesive on both faces, a tissue carrier that tears by hand and conforms rather than creasing.
If your application needs adhesion without a flame rating, the standard Mr.Bond® and Prateek® double-sided tissue tape grades cover that ground more directly.
What are the specifications of 4500 FLR?
The published specification is deliberately limited: fire-proof double-sided tissue tape construction, excellent adhesion, UL 94 V0 approved. Thickness and adhesive type are held as trade secrets and are not published.
In practice that means the discussion happens against your application rather than against a datasheet. Tell us the substrates being bonded, the bond area, the temperature the assembly sees and the flammability requirement written into your specification.
Share your requirement and the technical team will confirm suitability and quote against it.
