OEM MOUNTING -

Please note that a double-sided adhesive could be used. 

The two mounting options recommended for an OEM Micro is designing plastic clips into the device/housing or using a double-sided adhesive tape. 

•          MISC-00031 is a single sided adhesive and only meant to secure flex cables to corresponding connectors. – This won’t work for the reader, only connectors and cables.
•          We currently are not using a double-sided tape to secure the micro to anything specifically; however, we do use adhesives to secure full size OEM readers to our surface mount housings with good success. 
•          We recommend that to use 3M VHB Tape for the double-sided adhesive. Please see this link to the 3M VHB tape data sheet for reference:

o          We are currently using 5952 3M VHB TAPE for above OEM application with good success. 
         It is important to note that once the reader is installed with VHB tape and is allowed to cure, it becomes very difficult to remove without breaking the reader.
