Product Introduction
3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Instant Adhesive CA5 is a medium-viscosity cyanoacrylate adhesive designed for strong, fast-acting bonds. Its viscosity makes it particularly useful for filling small gaps when bonding rough, uneven, or dissimilar surfaces. Once applied, this “super glue” reaches handling strength in under 60 seconds and achieves a full cure in 24 hours, keeping jobs moving quickly. The resulting bond is strong and durable, with an overlap shear strength of over 2,000 psi, making it a reliable choice for various industrial applications.
3M™ CA5 Features:
- Medium viscosity is useful for gap filling when bonding rough or uneven surfaces.
- Provides high bond strength and good impact resistance.
- Reaches handling strength in under 60 seconds for rapid assembly.
- Adhesive is easily applied and controlled directly from the bottle.
- Creates a strong, durable, and long-lasting bond on a variety of substrates.
3M™ CA5 Applications:
- Gap filling between imperfectly mated parts.
- General industrial assembly and manufacturing uses.
- Bonding rubber, foam, and glass components.
- Any task requiring instant bonding and rapid fixturing of parts.
