Product Description
3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Epoxy Adhesive DP100NS Translucent is a fast-curing, two-part structural epoxy adhesive designed to deliver robust bonding and excellent post-cure machinability. Formulated with a non-sag paste consistency, it ensures precise application without dripping or running on vertical surfaces. This translucent adhesive provides reliable overlap shear strength across a variety of substrates, including metals, plastics, and fiberglass-reinforced plastics.
Key features
- Fast cure and non-sag: Provides a convenient 5-minute work life and sets rapidly in 15-20 minutes, with a non-sag formula that prevents run-off.
- Simple mixing: Features an easy 1:1 mix ratio by volume for accurate and consistent dispensing.
- Excellent machinability: Cures to a firm, rigid finish (82 Shore D hardness) that can be easily machined after curing.
Applications / Suitable for
- Structural bonding of metals, including aluminum, steel, copper, and brass
- Adhering various plastics such as ABS, PVC, acrylic, and polycarbonate
- Assemblies requiring fast cure times and post-cure machinability
