3m Sheet Metal Adhesive

3m adhesives and tapes can be used for a broad variety of applications and substrates and we re happy to help you find the right one for your assembly process.

3m sheet metal adhesive.

Our 3m panel bonding adhesive is a cost effective two part epoxy adhesive for bonding replacement body panels. From its fast convenient cartridge system the adhesive seals and bonds steel aluminum smc and frp securely in a single operation. By enabling the use of a wider range of materials in product design 3m tapes and adhesives allow enhanced aesthetics lighter weight constructions and improved end performance. Anaerobic adhesives are used as a threadlocker pipe thread sealant retaining compound or fip gasket.

3m panel bonding adhesive is a two part epoxy adhesive which provides extended work time but can be rapidly cured with heat. 3m scotch weld structural two part epoxy adhesives are strong durable perform well at high temperatures and resist chemical degradation making them ideal for industrial applications. Anaerobic adhesives are only used as metal adhesive and sealants. 3m 08115 is a two part epoxy adhesive which provides high performance bonding.

This adhesive was designed to bond permanently to bare metals with minimal surface preparation but also bonds well to wide variety of other materials including most plastics. Used in the replacement of automotive quarter panels door panels roof panels and other outer body sheet metal. It is packaged in a 200 ml cartridge and is to be used in conjunction with our 08117 premium manual applicator and the 08193 static mixing nozzles. 3m scotch weld metal bonder acrylic adhesive dp8407ns is a gray structural adhesive with high overlap shear and peel strength with good impact resistance and durability.

These adhesive and tape solutions allow customers to manufacture products in creative efficient and effective ways. Image courtesy of 3m on a painted surface the adhesive is not bonding to the metal but instead to the paint coating. 3m 08115 is designed to bond steel aluminium and smc. Surface energy affects the effectiveness of adhesive.

Structural adhesives such as structural acrylic adhesives and epoxies are ideal metal adhesives for forming strong bonds that resist stress temperature chemicals. These high strength adhesives can offer excellent impact resistance and enable product design for industries like aerospace construction and transportation. Nevertheless it s possible to achieve a successful bond to the metal or its surface coating depending on the bond strength you need. Do not use on structural components such as pillars sills core support etc.

Our 3m scotch weld structural adhesive film af 163 2 encompasses a family of thermosetting modified epoxy adhesives in film form that provides long term durability and meets specific challenges for metal and composite solid panel and honeycomb sandwich construction where high fracture toughness and peel strength is required.
