Details
Highlights
- BOND VERSATILITY: Bonds metals and composites, enabling multi-material bonding in demanding production environments
- STRUCTURAL STRENGTH: May be considered as an alternative to rivets, mechanical fasteners, and spot welds, supporting lighter assemblies and simplified fabrication
- FAST ADHESIVE PERFORMANCE: Provides a 4-minute working time, reaching handling strength in 15 minutes
- CONTROLLED VISCOSITY: Dispenses as a medium-viscosity adhesive for easy, controlled application
- TOUGHENED FORMULATION: Provides impact resistance to help support long-term joint reliability in demanding mechanical applications
- HEAT RESISTANCE: Can withstand heat exposure up 200 °C for up to 30 minutes, helping support coated metal processes without compromising bond performance
3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Epoxy Adhesive DP405 is a two-part epoxy adhesive engineered for structural bonding across a variety of substrates, including metals and composites. Its 4-minute working time delivers a fast bond with high shear and peel strength. This structural bond performance may be considered as an alternative to mechanical fasteners, screws, rivets, and spot welds in most applications, helping simplify assembly and support lighter assemblies on appropriate applications.
When using a Duo-Pak (DP) size adhesive, rely on 3M dispensing equipment for convenient and accurate metering, mixing and dispensing.
High Peel and Shear Strength Maintains Lasting Bond at High and Low Temperatures
3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Epoxy Adhesive DP405 maintains bond strength at high and low temperatures and can withstand paint bake operations up to 400°F for 60 minutes. It works well on a variety of substrates such as metals, ceramics, wood, glass and many composites, and is an excellent indoor bonding agent for joining, gluing, potting, panel bonding, and structural bonding.
Recommended Applications
Small joint assembly
Heavy-duty mounting assembly
Metalworking
Carbon fiber epoxy bonding
Fast 5 Minute Work Life with Quick Cure Time
3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Epoxy Adhesive DP405 dispenses as a medium viscosity adhesive for easy, controlled application. The adhesive reaches handling strength in approximately 15 minutes and is fully cured in 24 hours (at 72°F/22°C.) The mix ratio is 2:1 and provides a 5 minute work life, providing limited time to adjust for desired fit prior to curing. This adhesive is available in a variety of package sizes and can be dispensed in several ways to meet the demands of the user and the job.
Toughened for Impact and Fatigue Resistance
3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Epoxy Adhesive DP405 is appropriate for applications that will face tough environmental challenges. Formulated to provide strong adhesion for the long-term, this resilient epoxy is another way 3M meets and exceeds the demands of even the toughest applications.
What are Epoxy Adhesives?
Epoxy adhesives are part of the class of adhesives called "structural adhesives," which also includes 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 work life (open
