- Non-sag formulation ensures adhesive stays where applied
3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Epoxy Adhesive DP100NS is a non-sag, two-part, rigid epoxy adhesive offering a fast cure and machinability. It is a fast-setting epoxy that cures at room temperature to form a rigid bond. Non-sag formulation ensures adhesive stays where applied.
Non-Sag Formulation Ensures Adhesive Stays in Place
3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Epoxy Adhesive DP100NS is a non-sag, versatile structural adhesive for general purpose bonding. It works on a variety of substrates including metals, ceramics, concrete and wood. With a high shear strength it delivers strong, rigid performance, making it ideal for multiple applications in the electrical, general industrial, construction and consumer goods industries.
Recommended Applications
General attachment applications in a variety of industries
Attachment of various substrates that require permanency
Applications that require machining afterwards
Fast 5 Minute Work Life with Handling Strength in 15 Minutes
The mix ratio for 3M™ Scotch-Weld ™ Epoxy Adhesive DP100NS is 1:1 for quick, precise dispensing, and with a 5-minute working time there's some opportunity for repositioning for precise alignment of parts. The adhesive reaches handling strength in approximately 15 minutes and is fully cured in 48 hours (at 72°F/22°C).
Understanding Epoxy Adhesives
Epoxy adhesives, including 5 minute epoxy, are part of the class of adhesives called "structural adhesives," which include polyurethane, acrylic, cyanoacrylate and others. Epoxies are formulated as liquid reactive polymers that undergo a chemical reaction when mixed and then cure to form a solid plastic material. Once the two parts are mixed in their specified ratio, they begin the curing process and offer a limited working time where the adhesive can be applied and the two surfaces positioned as needed. This work life lasts anywhere from a few minutes to several hours. These structural adhesives provide high shear and peel strengths, depending on the formula, and better heat and chemical resistance than other common adhesives. In general, epoxy adhesives have the highest overall strength and offer the best perfo
