What are VELCRO® Brand Extreme Lock Fasteners?

Introducing VELCRO® Brand Extreme Lock Fasteners, engineered for secure and reliable fastening. Their flush, wobble-free design ensures stability, and an audible click confirms they are adequately secured.

With strong hook-to-hook engagement, these fasteners adhere to smooth or mildly rough surfaces, including metal and wood. They are built to withstand rain, snow and sweltering heat and offer exceptional durability.

I received only one side of the fastener—is there a soft side?

Extreme Lock fasteners consist of mushroom-shaped hooks that snap together. Unlike traditional hook-and-loop designs, this type engages to itself, eliminating the need for two different sides. Please note that they are not recommended for use with conventional hook-and-loop fasteners.

How can I use these extra strong VELCRO® Brand fasteners?

These semi-permanent mounting fasteners have a wide range of uses:

– Mount outside décor: Display cameras, lights, sensors and solar-powered accessories indoors or out.
– For musicians: Mount guitar effects pedals to a baseboard.
– Mount signs: Hang semi-rigid or rigid signs in gymnasiums and beyond.

They are not recommended for securing sofa cushions, as many cushions are made from fabric treated with coatings that resist adhesive bonding.

Are VELCRO® Brand Extreme Lock Fasteners waterproof?

The fasteners are water-resistant but not completely waterproof.

What temperatures do these fasteners operate at?

These fasteners can operate in temperatures ranging from -40 °F to 194 °F (-40 °C to 90 °C).

How much weight can Extreme Lock fasteners hold?

Extreme Lock fasteners can hold up to 2.5 lbs per square inch and have a total weight limit of 15 lbs. Even a small piece offers powerful holding strength.

For mounting tape aimed at indoor use, check out VELCRO® Brand Industrial Strength Tape, which holds up to 10 lbs.

How do I disengage Extreme Lock fasteners?

To separate the fasteners, begin at one edge and gradually lift towards the opposite edge.

How do you remove the adhesive from Extreme Lock fasteners?

Note: Removing ALFA-LOK™ may damage the surface it is adhered to due to its high adhesive strength.

1. If removal is necessary, soak the adhesive strips in a commercial adhesive remover like Goo Gone, acetone, WD-40, mineral spirits or a citrus-based cleaner for five minutes.
2. Caution: Some chemicals that remove ALFA-LOK™ may damage the substrate.
3. Start at one end of the strip and peel it away at a 90-degree angle until the entire strip is removed.
4. If any adhesive residue remains, use a commercial cleaner again.

What surfaces can bond to Extreme Lock fasteners?

Extreme Lock fasteners can bond to a wide range of smooth or textured surfaces, including metal, wood, glass, vinyl and concrete. However, they are not recommended for drywall.

Can Extreme Lock fasteners be applied in cold temperatures?

No, a minimum temperature of 50 °F is required when applying the adhesive. Once bonded, the fasteners operate effectively within the range of -40 °F to 194 °F (-40 °C to 90 °C).
