Product Introduction of 3M Scotch-Weld Plastic & Rubber Instant Adhesive PR40
3M Scotch-Weld Plastic & Rubber Instant Adhesive PR40 is a low viscosity instant adhesive. The PR100 instant adhesive is formulated to give exceptional performance on difficult-to-bond substrates, such as EPDM, nylon, polypropylene and polyethylene with use of an appropriate primer. Once applied, the glue has fast handling time and cure to keep jobs moving quickly.
Our 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Plastic & Rubber Instant Adhesive PR40 is a glue that is easily applied with a thin bond line from a squeeze bottle and cures quickly. This cyanoacrylate adhesive is dispensed from a flexible container; pinch a precise drop or squeeze for a steady bead.
Once applied, our 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Plastic & Rubber Instant Adhesive PR40 typically reaches handling strength in under 15 seconds, with a full cure achieved in 24 hours. This keeps jobs moving quickly and may help improve workplace productivity. Once a full cure is achieved, the glue achieves a strong, durable and lasting bond, with overlap shear strength over 2,000psi.
Our 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Plastic and Rubber Instant Adhesives are designed to give exceptional performance on difficult-to-bond plastic and rubber substrates. These adhesives may be bonded to like substrates or in combination with metal or composite substrates.
Instant adhesives are cyanoacrylate based formulas that are strong, fast-acting glues used in industrial and household applications. In general, they are an acrylic resin that rapidly polymerizes in the presence of moisture, forming long, strong chains, joining the bonded surfaces together.
Cyanoacrylate adhesives should be applied thinly, with pressure put on the bond for a few seconds, to ensure that the reaction proceeds rapidly and a strong bond is formed within a reasonable time.
3M instant adhesives apply right from the container and rapidly reach handling strength at room temperature. Commonly referred to as a super glue, a single drop per square inch can bond many plastics, rubbers, metals, wood and more. An instant adhesive from 3M set a Guinness World Record in 2012 for the strongest glue by lifting an 8.1 metric ton forklift in the air for one hour.
In our 3M Industrial Adhesives and Tapes Division, we apply the science of adhesion to deliver innovative solutions that improve the design and manufacturing processes of companies around the world. In the end, our technologies help customers like you deliver competitive products to the market faster and more efficiently.
