Worth keeping in mind when using double-sided tape

Surface preparation: The surface you apply the tape to must be clean, dry and free of dust and dirt. This will ensure a strong, secure attachment.

Adhesion / Adhesive Strength: Double-sided tape comes in different levels of adhesive strength, so be sure to choose the right tape for your specific needs. For example, if you use tape to hold heavy objects, you must of course use tape with high adhesive strength.

Temperature-resistant: Be aware that tapes can be sensitive to temperature changes, so be sure to choose a tape that can withstand the temperature range of your application.

Aging: Over time, tapes can lose their adhesive strength, so it is important to periodically check the tape and replace it if necessary.

Removing tape residue: If/when removing double-sided tape, be careful not to damage the surface it is attached to. In some cases, it may be necessary to use a solvent / glue remover to clean the surface.
