Adhesive for cell phone electronics contacts?

Ricardo

I am changing the LCD screen to a Motorola Razr phone; the screen body has a couple flexible PCB's held in place by some kind of adhesive. Anyone knows what adhesive is this and where can I find it?

Thanks!!

It's just the standard double sided tape that can be found at any hardware store (it's very thin and white). They usually sell them in a sheet of small squares that can be trimmed to size. The last sheet I purchased was about 1.49. Just make sure you don't get the heavy duty stick or it will probably break the PCB if you try to pull it apart.

Hmmm. As simple as that? I'll give it a try. Thanks!!

I have yet to find anything thinner than 1/16th in a hardware store. I had to get 1/32nd thick stuff directly from 3M.

The HW store down the street from me has them 1/32 to 1/8 and from barely sticky to incredibly sticky. It's an older HW store, so they have lots of stuff not found in the chain stores.
