Product Introduction
3M™ Structural Adhesive SA9820 is a two-part epoxy formulated for OEM automotive applications, excelling at bonding carbon composites and dissimilar materials like aluminum, even on oily surfaces. It cures at low temperatures (as low as 80°C) yet delivers the performance of a one-part adhesive. A key feature is its production flexibility, allowing bonded substructures to be stored for up to two months before full curing. Its non-sag formula and visual mix indicator make it suitable for both manual and robotic application.
3M™ SA9820 Features
- Two-part structural adhesive provides design flexibility in automotive structural applications
- Formulated for composite and aluminum bonding in primary automotive structures
- Features high impact and fatigue resistance
- Broad curing windows at temperatures from 80°C to 140°C with fast cycle times to reduce distortion
- Induction curing not required but can be used for faster processing
- Compatible with wet and dry lubricants, maintaining bond strength under various process conditions
- Mix quality easily verified by appearance and color change of applied or cured adhesive
3M™ SA9820 Applications
- Carbon composite bonding in automotive structures
- Dissimilar material bonding such as carbon fiber and aluminum
- Automotive structural and chassis assembly bonding
- Applications requiring low-temperature curing and long-term storage before full cure
