Product Introduction
3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Instant Adhesive CA50 Gel is a surface-insensitive cyanoacrylate adhesive with a gel viscosity, specifically designed for bonding porous or acidic substrates like wood, paper, leather, and ceramics. It creates a strong, durable, and long-lasting bond on a wide variety of materials. This fast-curing adhesive reaches handling strength in under 120 seconds and fully cures within 24 hours, significantly accelerating production cycles. The gel consistency prevents running or dripping, making it ideal for vertical surfaces. Application is clean and precise from a squeeze bottle—a pinch dispenses a single drop, while a steady squeeze produces a continuous bead.
3M™ EC-3501 B/A Features:
- Surface Insensitive: Excellent for bonding acidic or porous substrates like wood and leather.
- High Strength: Provides a strong, impact-resistant, and durable bond.
- Rapid Curing: Reaches handling strength in under 120 seconds to improve productivity.
- Gel Viscosity: Ensures no-drip, no-run application, even on vertical surfaces.
- Precise Application: Easily dispensed from the bottle for controlled drops or beads.
3M™ EC-3501 B/A Applications:
- Gasket attachment and sealing.
- Small joint assembly in manufacturing.
- Jewelry assembly and repair.
- Orthopedic products and footwear bonding.
