The hook and loop fastener, commonly known as Velcro™, is comprised of two halves, each is 3/4"x1.5". One half is attached to the back of UltraGauge, as shown below. The 2nd half is attached to a surface inside the vehicle, such as the dash. The fastener may be used as-is or trimmed in size or cut in to several pieces. Each half has an adhesive that can be applied to any clean, solid surface. The fastener is an industrial strength Hook & Loop which can withstand temperatures as high as 225°F (107°C) without lifting or shearing from the attached surface.

Installation recommendations:
- It is advisable to slightly radius or round the corners with a scissors, as shown above. This will reduce the likelihood of lifting
- The surface to which the fastener is attached must be clean, dry, and oil and grease free.
- Apply only after the surface and the tape have reached a temperature range of 70°F to 90°F.
- Avoid leaving the adhesive exposed for longer than 3 minutes after removing the protective backing.
- The adhesive is pressure sensitive. Apply roughly 5lbs of force per square inch for 5 seconds.
- After application, and for maximum adhesion, allow the adhesive to set for 1 hour before us
WARNING: Improper application of the Hook & Loop fastener may cause adhesive failure and result in damage to UltraGauge. Impact damage is not covered by the warranty.
